The area including Phuoc Huu, Phuoc Thuan, Phuoc Dan and Phuoc Hai communes was the first to be visited by the program called “Donating scholarships to flood-hit children to go to school”, to prevent poor children from dropping out of school.
Thanks to kind-hearted businesses and donors, STF raised VND284 million in one month. After visiting the worst hit areas, STF provided the money for scholarships to students in Ninh Thuan, Quang Nam and Binh Dinh provinces. A team from STF will visit Binh Dinh on Dec. 31 and Quang Nam on January 10 to hand out 180 scholarships in each locality.
STF was established in 2002 by the Saigon Times Group and business people to support education and training, and contribute to human resource development to aid national development.
