Meaningful gifts presented to disadvantaged students in Ha Giang
PANO – The People’s Army Newspaper, in coordination with Bac A Bank, the Foundation for Vietnamese Stature, the Education Translated Book and Dictionary Joint Stock Company and the Educational Technology Center under the Vietnam Education Publishing House presented gifts to disadvantaged students at Tien Nguyen Ethnic Boarding Secondary School in Quang Binh district, Ha Giang province.
At the event, the People’s Army Newspaper, Bac A Bank and the Foundation for Vietnamese Stature handed over gifts, totally valued VND 22 million, to 22 poor students, encouraging them to study and gain better academic results.
In addition, Education Translated Book and Dictionary Joint Stock Company and the Educational Technology Center presented nearly 100 reference books, medical face masks, and hand sanitizers to students and teachers at Tien Nguyen Ethnic Boarding Secondary School.
Addressing the event, Headmaster of Tien Nguyen Ethnic Minority Secondary School Hoang Khuong Duy said that there are five ethnic groups, namely the Dao, Tay, Kinh, H'mong and Nung, living separately in Tien Nguyen commune. The local people depend mainly on agricultural production. Therefore, they still have difficulties in life and low levels of education.
Against this backdrop, the teachers and students at Tien Nguyen Ethnic Boarding Secondary School are trying their best to overcome their difficulties and teach their students. Over the past years, they have achieved encouraging results in teaching local students.
At the meeting, Lo Mui May, a Dao ethnic eighth grader, expressed his gratitude to the sponsors and promised to study hard to become a good citizen in the future.
