Despite their old age and high injury rate, which greatly affects their daily life and work, these national contributors always overcome difficulties, set exemplary in life, actively participate in social activities and contribute to building their homeland.

Since early this year, the Department of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs has completed procedures and issued monthly allowances for 34 resistance activists infected with toxic chemicals. Thus, Bac Giang province currently has nearly 7,200 victims of Agent Orange receiving allowances, including 5,400 direct victims and the rest of indirect victims (2nd generation). There are also about 500 third generation victims who are being verified.

To help these victims, the Provincial Association of Victims of Agent Orange mobilizes organizations and individuals to donate to the fund. On average each year, with a total budget of about 7 billion VND (cash and kind), the Association supports families of difficult victims to renovate their houses, subsidize vocational training and present wheelchairs to members.
