This family has been trapped an extremely difficult situation: Mr. Nguyen An and his wife had a respiratory disease and mental illness due to the impact of pesticides when Mr. An and his wife were working as employees in the farm. His house was built thanks to the support of the local government.  However, with the limited fund, the local authority was not able to support him a kitchen and a chicken coop; their family has to cook food in the temporary kitchen which made of makeshift materials. His oldest daughter dropped out of school to make ends meet.  Mr. An also raises 2 children are at school aged.  During three  hard working days under the harsh weather conditions with the support of the  local constructors, a team has lent a hand to build for Mr. An family a bathroom included a toilet; a small kitchen with a gas stove and especially  a chicken coop with the main purpose of creating a job and increasing the family’s income .
