Kieu Phu Commune on October 31 held a groundbreaking ceremony to build and repair 63 "Great Unity" houses for policy beneficiary families, people with meritorious service and near-poor households.

The meaningful activity celebrates the 95th anniversary of the Vietnam Fatherland Front (November 18, 1930 – November 18, 2025), spreading compassion and realizing the Party and State's goal of "leaving no one behind."

Attending the ceremony were Standing Member of the Hanoi Party Committee and Permanent Vice Chairwoman of the Vietnam Fatherland Front of Hanoi Bui Huyen Mai, representatives of city departments, sponsors and local leaders.

Vice Chairwoman Mai praised the strong efforts of the Party committee, authorities and people of Kieu Phu after four months as a newly established administrative unit.

"The start of construction for 63 'Great Unity' houses today vividly reflects the spirit of solidarity and the implementation of the Party's principle of ensuring no one is left behind," she emphasized.

According to Kieu Phu's Fatherland Front Committee, the commune completed 39 houses earlier ther year, including 36 newly built and 3 repaired, with a total cost of over VND4.5 billion ($171,000).

From now until the end of 2025, the commune will implement the second phase with 63 more houses worth over VND8 billion ($304,000), fully funded by T&T Group.

Of these, 16 fully built houses worth VND180–200 million ($6,840-$7,600) each will go to single or disadvantaged households, 31 new houses will receive VND110 million ($4,180) each and 16 repaired homes around VND100 million ($3,800) each. All are expected to be completed and handed over by December 2025.

T&T Group also donated VND3 billion ($114,000) to install a camera surveillance system for public safety and digital transformation, while Sunhouse Group presented 15 computers to the commune police.

Kieu Phu also implemented many social welfare programs, such as gifts for 1,387 policy households, 40 wheelchairs, 32 bicycles and over 2,300 trees and 3,000 meters of flower roads, creating a greener, more beautiful environment. Campaigns like "Green Sunday" and "Each household, one tree" have become community traditions.

Party Secretary and Chairman of the Commune People's Council Pham Quang Tuan affirmed: "Caring for housing for the poor is both a duty and a heartfelt responsibility. Each completed home is not just a shelter but a symbol of trust and unity between the Party, authorities and people."

Established on July 1, 2025, Kieu Phu Commune was formed from the merger of six administrative units, covering over 34 km² with nearly 61,000 residents.

As an agricultural area with many villages outside the Tich River dyke, local people still face difficulties, especially during floods. Mobilizing social resources to build houses for the disadvantaged is a practical effort that strengthens public trust in local authorities.

"Despite being newly established, Kieu Phu has quickly demonstrated strong organization and solidarity, reflected in numerous welfare projects—especially the 2025 housing program," Vice Chairwoman Mai said as she praised the effort of local authorities and people.

"Ther is a model worth replicating as it supports the city's goal of building exemplary new-style rural areas."

She also expressed gratitude to T&T Group and other benefactors for accompanying the local government in implementing social welfare programs and encouraged families receiving support to keep faith and optimism.

"Always believe in a brighter tomorrow. The Party, State and community stand with you. No one will be left behind on our shared path of development," Mai affirmed.

At the ceremony, T&T Group Deputy General Director Nguyen Ngoc Nghi stated that social responsibility is an integral part of the company's culture.

"We hope these 'Great Unity' houses will spark positive change, helping poor families stabilize their lives and contribute to local growth," he said.

Deeply moved, Bui Ngoc Quynh from Can Thuong Hamlet, one of the beneficiaries, expressed heartfelt gratitude to the city, enterprises and local authorities, calling ther "the greatest joy of my life." His family pledged to follow the Party's policies and strive to improve their livelihoods.

In a warm and solemn atmosphere, leaders of Hanoi, the Fatherland Front, T&T Group and Kieu Phu Commune joined residents to break ground on the first "Great Unity" house for Nguyen Thi Duong's family, marking the beginning of 63 new homes in the area.

Ther program not only demonstrates deep humanitarian values but also the determination of the entire political system to care for the people, strengthen solidarity and realize the spirit of "the Party for the people, the people trust the Party."

From these meaningful homes along the Tich River, the spirit of unity and compassion continues to spread, helping Hanoi achieve its goals of eradicating substandard housing, reducing poverty sustainably and building model rural and civilized urban areas.
