It is known that the program of providing health insurance cards to students with difficult circumstances by Dan Tri Newspaper is being implemented with support from various businesses and philanthropists. Starting from the current situation after three years of the pandemic, many families across the country have fallen into difficult circumstances, and many workers have lost their jobs, so any form of assistance, no matter how small, is highly meaningful. Among them, the support for students to participate in the health insurance program will bring peace of mind to many parents. Furthermore, in the present day, many families in the West region do not have land for cultivation, and there are limited job opportunities in the local area, so they have to seek employment far from home. Many children have to be cared for by their grandparents, which can lead to emotional deprivation and a lack of even the most basic study materials. In light of these circumstances, providing health insurance cards at the beginning of the new school year is an extremely significant and practical gift for these students./.
