Children in Sy Village happy with the new classroom

The previous classroom in Sy Village was seriously deteriorated, particularly after major floods which hit the central region, including Quang Binh Province, in 2016. After a call for community support to help the region, Dantri/DTiNews’s Compassionate Hearts Charity Fund received VND1 billion (USD45,450) from donors. VND300 million from Dinh Vang Group was used to help the construction of the new kindergarten and two toilets in Sy Village which was among the hardest hit by the flood.

The village has yet to be connected to national power grid. Roads to the village are rough and tortuous. Most of the children attending the kindergarten are from local ethnic minority groups.
