Vice Chairwoman of the Provincial Committee for Population, Family and Children Luu Thi Phuong said that the province’s Sponsor Fund for Children was set up 18 years ago and it is becoming more and more active and effective in operation. Until now, the province’s Sponsor Fund for Children has donated over VND 38 billion to 30,000 poor children, disabled children and children who suffered from fatal diseases. More than 3,500 students have been granted the scholarships entitled “Poor Students Overcoming Difficulties to Study Well” and “Giving Strength to Students" by the Provincial Committee for Population, Family and Children. The scholarships have partly helped poor students overcome difficulties to achieve good results in studying and succeed in life.
Speaking at the ceremony, Vice Chairwoman of the provincial People’s Committee Huynh Thi Nga highly appreciated the efforts and the contributions made by the province’s Sponsor Fund for Children over the past time. She also suggested that the leaders of departments, branches, agencies and localities should continue to be interested in children’s education work aiming to help poor and disabled children overcome difficulties in the life and become good citizens.
