The plan sets specific targets: to raise a total of approximately USD 870,000 for the city-wide "Gratitude Fund"; present 1,102 "Gratitude Savings Books"; renovate and upgrade 28 memorial works dedicated to fallen soldiers; and support the repair and improvement of housing for 149 families of those who rendered meritorious services to the nation.

The city aims to ensure that 100% of families of those with meritorious services maintain a standard of living equal to or higher than the local average, and that all surviving Vietnamese Heroic Mothers are fully cared for both materially and spiritually, ensuring the best possible quality of life. Hanoi will also continue to mobilize organizations, agencies, and social and political bodies to adopt and provide care for newly recognized Vietnamese Heroic Mothers, targeting a minimum support level of USD 80 per person per month.
