On November 13, 2018, VNHelp held the inauguration ceremony of A Chau Phong Primary School, Chau Phong Commune, Tan Chau Town, An Giang Province with 4 classrooms, and a teacher room. Attending the ceremony were Mr. & Mrs. Truoc Do & Phuong Lan from California – the main sponsors for the project, VNHelp representatives, and local guests. Having learned that Tan Chau was her mother’s hometown, Phuong Lan was very moved by the ceremony. In her speech, she emphasized that education is very important as knowledge stayed with us forever while all material possessions could leave us at any time. She expressed her wish to continue helping disadvantaged children of her motherland to obtain better education.
The new school is ready for use as all classrooms are furnished with furniture, and equipment. The facility also includes 4 newly built restrooms.
