Trade union levels will register to implement projects and tasks suitable to the conditions of each agency, unit and enterprise.

Social resources are prioritized for policy families, poor households, and students in difficult circumstances; building and repairing houses; supporting plants, breeds, and production materials; medical examinations, health consultations and free medicine distribution.

The Border Guard Station is responsible for surveying actual needs, providing information about the area and coordinating the implementation of civil works and livelihood models. The receipt, management and use of funds must ensure the right purpose, publicity, and transparency.
