Grant birth certificates to 04 underprivileged chi

By Huong Ha | Digital Fundraiser

We are pleased to announce that 04 children under the auspices of the Societas Vitae Apostolicae Incarnatio - Consecratio - Missio have been granted birth certificates.

L.H.T.A, N.Q.S, N.V.H, and N.T.K.T are children with difficult circumstances from different locations such as Ho Chi Minh City, Dak Nong, and Soc Trang. They have been adopted at a young age by the Societas Vitae Apostolicae Incarnatio- Consecratio- Missio, so they do not have information about their parents. Therefore, despite nearing adulthood, some still do not have birth certificates. That is why the project "A New Page Life" by MSD Vietnam has helped connect them with social officials, lawyers, and supported the costs of DNA testing so that they can have birth certificates and go to school like other children of the same age.”

The desires of these children are also the goals of MSD Vietnam: to make all our efforts to connect individuals and organizations to support underprivileged children in obtaining birth certificates, so that they have the opportunity to go to school, receive healthcare, and enjoy their social rights and welfare.

MSD Vietnam hopes that with your help, we can assist more and more children. All of your support, no matter how small, will help open a new page in life and the future for a child.

All the donations we receive will be used for the following purposes:

Conducting DNA testing procedures
Covering transportation and documentation expenses for families, social officials, or lawyers involved in the verification process, supporting children's enrollment in school, etc.

10 BIRTH CERTIFICATES GRANTED TO THE THACH FAMILY

By Ha Nhu Huong | Digital Fundraiser

Children of Ms. Thach T. S and Mr. T. C. T

10 BIRTH CERTIFICATES GRANTED TO THE THACH FAMILY

In July 2022, a coincidence brought us to the home of the Thach family in Hoc Mon District, Ho Chi Minh City where 20 children in the extended family of the four Thach sisters reside.

All four Thach sisters earn their living by selling scraps, and they are devoid of any kind of identity document. Before “A New Life Page” found them, all of the children of the Thach family (some of whom are already 9-10 years old) lived without a birth certificate, proper education, and health insurance.

Acknowledging the situation of the Thach family, the “A New Life Page” project has acted to connect their case with social service officers and lawyers, and has supported them in paying for DNA tests. Up until now, 10 out of 20 children have been assisted to receive their birth certificates, and “A New Life Page” has supported the whole family in calling for donations from philanthropists to help cover their monthly expenses.

M.L – Ms. Thach T. S’s second child has received support from MSD to receive her birthcertificate. She has always hoped that her brothers and sisters can soon get their birth certificates to go to school.

M.N –Ms. Thach T. S’s fourth child, currently attending a charity school in Tan Phu district. For M.N, having a chance to attend school is a joy and a great blessing. Therefore, she is very keen on reading books and studying in her free time.

Nevertheless, 10 out of 20 children are yet to receive their birth certificates. Their greatest desire is to attend school and that their brothers and sisters can all go to school.

That pure and innocent desire is also MSD Vietnam’s crucial mission: to try its best in enabling and facilitating efforts from individuals and organizations to help children with disadvantaged backgrounds receive their birth certificates, and thus, give them a chance to attend school, to receive quality healthcare, and to have their deserved rights and benefits ensured.

MSD Vietnam hopes that with your support for the project, we can help more and more children. Even the smallest donation can help open a new life page and bring a brighter future for children.

All donations received will be used for the following purposes:

DNA testing procedures.
Travel expenses and procedural expenses for social service officers or lawyers during the identity confirmation process; admission expenses for children, etc.

3 DISADVANTAGED CHILDREN HAVE BIRTH CERTIFICATES

By Ha Thu Chu | MSD Event and Communication Manager

P.H.P, P.V.T, and P.H.M.A

Dear our donors,

We’re pleased to inform you that A new life has helped 3 disadvantaged children in Vietnam to have birth certificates. More children can go to school this September.

P.H.P, P.V.T, and P.H.M.A were born in a family with difficult circumstances, their parents worked as lottery ticket sellers, they had never been to school, were illiterate, and had no identification documents. Therefore, children born without birth registration, cannot go to school but have to go with their parents to sell lottery tickets all over Ho Chi Minh City. Only when they met the project "A new life page" did they receive support to have birth certificates and be registered to study at the love school of a temple near their home.

Disadvantaged children:
- Were born in small alleys and on streets or followed migrated parents and relatives to Hochiminh City
- Grow up without any legal proof of identity
- Be out of school and have no child healthcare insurance
- May be forced to work under hazardous conditions and sometimes illegally

We hope that we can help more and more children. All of your donations will help. All supports - any coin will be counted. Small timely support may open a new life page and a brighter future for a child.

In addition, all donations received will be used only for the implementation of DNA testing procedures, travel and paper works for families/social workers or lawyers for the identity verification process, support for children to enroll in schools, etc.

We will continue sending you updates about the progress of doing certificates. If you use Facebook, please join us at "Trang Moi Cuoc Doi (A new life page)" - https://www.facebook.com/Duantrangmoicuocdoi/ to get frequent updates and information.

Sincerely thank you for all of your support and we are trying our best to give further good updates for you. Please take good care of yourself.

Best regards,

MSD team
