More than 55 assistive devices have been provided by the Action to the Community Development Institute (ACDC) to persons with disabilities across communes and wards in Gia Lai province, helping them live more safely, conveniently, and confidently in daily life – improving quality of life and reinforcing self-worth.
In the final months of 2025, the Action to the Community Development Institute (ACDC) continued to bring joy and hope to persons with disabilities in Gia Lai province under the framework of the “Improving the quality of life of persons with disabilities in provinces sprayed with Agent Orange” Project in Gia Lai and Quang Ngai provinces (Inclusion IIb Project).

Each gift tells a small story of joy and sharing: “I’m very happy to receive a new bicycle and study desk. Thank you so much to all the uncles and aunts who helped me.”– said P.N.H, a child with a mobility disability from Hoài Nhơn Bắc Ward. “Now I have a laptop to study even when I can’t go to school. Thank you very much to the project.”– shared D.T.T, a child with osteogenesis imperfecta, also from Hoai Nhon Bac Ward. |
Local officials, commune health workers, and core persons with disabilities directly guided recipients on proper use and continue to monitor the effectiveness of the devices to ensure they are used appropriately and bring lasting benefits.
The activity was highly appreciated by local authorities and communities, regarded as a practical effort to help persons with disabilities improve their quality of life, build confidence, and enhance participation in society. Many participants expressed their hope that livelihood and direct support models for persons with disabilities will be scaled up and maintained sustainably – not only providing “tools for living” but also building trust and self-belief so persons with disabilities can affirm their own value in life.
The activity is funded by the U.S. Government and implemented under the management of the National Action Centre for Toxic Chemicals and Environmental Treatment (NACCET) under the Ministry of National Defence. The Action to the Community Development Institute (ACDC) is one of the implementing partners managed by Humanity & Inclusion (HI).
