Family situation

In July 2021, tragedy struck Thanh Tam’s family when her father succumbed to late-stage cancer due to their inability to afford his treatment. Concurrently, her mother is battling bile duct cancer and is undergoing treatment at Gia Dinh Hospital in Ho Chi Minh City. Her mother used to run a small business, but her serious illness prevented her from working ever since. Adding to their challenges, Tam has a younger sister currently in junior high school.

The family is facing significant financial hardship. Their sole monthly income comes from Tam’s tutoring job, which pays 1.5 million VND. This meager income is stretched thin, as it must cover her mother’s medical expenses, support her younger sister’s studies, and sustain her family’s daily living expenses. The burden of Thanh Tam’s tuition fees has further worsened the hardships and their already dire situation.

Support from Be Better Foundation
