Accordingly, 8,558 policy beneficiaries have benefited from monthly allowances worth more than VND11.3 billion/ month in total.
Moreover, local departments and communities have focused on submitting 518 files for the recognition of "Heroic Vietnamese mothers". The State President has signed a decision to award and posthumously award the title “Heroic Vietnamese mother” to 518 mothers. Therefore, 924 mothers in Khanh Hoa have been awarded the title “Heroic Vietnamese mother”. 40 alive mothers are receiving life care with a monthly grant of 800,000-1 million each.
Furthermore, much propaganda has been boosted to call for donations to the gratitude fund among people from all walks of life. Since 2012, VND13.22 billion has been raised to build and repair 519 houses and offer gifts to policy beneficiaries on national holidays.
