On September 4, the People's Committee of Quang Tri province approved the project document to increase income for poor and disadvantaged disabled people in Cam Chinh and Cam Nghia communes (Cam Lo district) through cattle raising activities sponsored by Global Civic Sharing (GCS).

The project aims to increase income for disadvantaged families of people with disabilities in Cam Chinh and Cam Nghia communes through cattle raising. Of these, 45 households were given loans of VND16.6 million/household to buy cattle and receive training in financial management; 150 households were supported with capital to repair cattle barns. The total capital for the project is over VND1.255 billion.

Of which, refundable aid capital is 747 million VND for 45 households to borrow money to buy cows; non-refundable aid capital is more than 508 million VND for scientific and technical training, providing documents and techniques for the project and supporting barn repair. Counterpart capital is arranged by households through the preparation of barns and grass seeds.

The project implementation period is 36 months from the date of project approval. The project owner is the Cam Lo District Farmers' Association, responsible for managing and implementing the aid.
