Hy Vong, a school formed and built by FPT Corporation in Da Nang city, aims to receive 300 students in the first academic year and plans to take in and bring up 1,000 children in the future. At present, the preparation for the schooling and accommodation of the students has been completed.

In his speech to students in the first day of school, FPT Chairman Truong Gia Binh affirmed that “Hy Vong is the school of love. That is the love from the teachers, love from all the students in the school who are in the same situation, love from members of Hy Vong Foundation and FPT staff, and love from donors in the community,” he said.

According to Director of the Project of Hy Vong School Hoang Quoc Quyen, “Hy Vong School is not only a good environment for the students to study and train themselves, but also a common home of love, sharing and respect. Not only shown in numbers, it's the empathy, love and enthusiasm of the teachers, who will become “mothers” and “fathers” that will always accompany and support the students on their path to self-development.”

Previously, on September 16, 2021, Binh came up with the idea of building a school for children orphaned by COVID-19 in an effort to create an environment of care and love where they can grow up, study and contribute to the nation.
