Last week, VNHELP received some photos from the opening ceremony of the new school we helped build in Kien Giang as part of our school construction program. There will be more photos and video footage coming in, but we wanted to share what we have with you now.
About: Kien Giang is located in Vietnam’s Mekong Delta region. The province is known for its aquaculture and rice farming, though much still needs to be done for the province in terms of education, health, and economic development. Please take a look at our project pictures below!
-
- Parts of Kien Giang remain underdeveloped, lacking in basic infrastructure and connectivity.
-
- You can see how many things are in various states of disrepair.
-
- That’s why a neat, new school, like the one we’ve helped build above, are so vital to the community.
-
- Almost time for the opening ceremony!
-
- The students are coming in!
-
- It’s a moment worth capturing on film!
-
- Inside the classroom: here, great minds will flourish.
-
- The desks look a tad small for the event organizers, but they should be just right for the new students!
-
- Bikes were given away to help the students get to and from school.
-
- Lookin’ snazzy with their new rides!
-
- Ready for their close up?
-
- Take 2!
