Hi, I'm Thien
I'm a boy, 3 years old and live in Vietnam.
Phuc Thien was born in 2021 and currently lives with his older sister and parents. They share the same house with his aunt’s family. Thien’s mother is the sole income earner of the family, working as a clerical officer at the People’s Committee of Phuoc Tan ward. She also works as a part-time house cleaner outside of office hours, usually once a week. Thien’s father works in the construction field, specializing in watercolor painting and wall decals. Due to the decrease in new constructions after COVID-19, he faces an irregular income, which is beyond his control. He stays at home and manages the household chores on days when there is no work available. Despite their hard work, Thien’s parents have been struggling to cover their monthly expenses and their children's education. The family was referred to Holt Vietnam's FPR project, which provided them with financial assistance to open their coffee and beverage stall in front of their house.
