Students in Hanoi receive STF-PepsiCo scholarships
Ten students from University of National Economics and University of Foreign Trade in Hanoi last week received long-term scholarships worth VND10 million each from the Saigon Times Foundation (STF) under the Saigon Times Group and PepsiCo Vietnam.
“I’m so happy and surprised to be awarded this scholarship because there are many talented students at my school. I want to become a businesswoman,” said Bui Thi Thuy, a student of the international commerce faculty of Hanoi’s University of Foreign Trade.
Thuy lives with her grandparents who are 80-year-old farmers in Phuc Tho District in Hanoi because her mother died when she was 9 and then her father left her.
Nguyen Van Thang, student of the industry and construction faculty of Hanoi’s University of National Economics wishes to become a successful businessman. Born in a poor family in Nam Dinh, Thang and his older sister struggle to find money for tuition and living expenses in Hanoi.
“I would like to give my sincere thanks to the scholarship program. This is such a great support for me. I hope to contribute to some social activities conducted by PepsiCo Vietnam and STF”, Thang said in an email.Previously, 25 students at Tay Do University in Can Tho City and three universities in HCMC including University of Economics, University of Agriculture and Forestry and University of Industry and two universities in Danang City including University of Economics and University of Technology received the STF-PepsiCo scholarships.
The STF together with PepsiCo Vietnam have donated long-term scholarships to 55 students in Can Tho, HCMC, Danang and Hanoi since 2008.
