Upon receiving a request for help from the Long Sap border post, the Green Gables learned that A Ma School in Long Sap Commune was a resettlement area for people who gave up their land to build the Son La Hydropower Plant, and was one of the schools with special needs and difficulties. The facilities here were old and degraded, the walls were rotten and unsafe...

At the groundbreaking ceremony, Green Gables Chairman - Tran Le Hung expressed his gratitude to the border guards who connected and facilitated the smooth implementation of the project. The Department of Education and the School Board respectfully received this gift. The Green Gables team is always united, persistent and determined. The units have trusted and supported, and the individuals have joined hands to spread love.

“This is the fourth school we have joined hands to build,” said the Chairman of Green Gables. “These safe, spacious, and beautiful classrooms will help children in the border mountainous areas confidently go to school like any other child. They will become young people with a solid knowledge foundation, with knowledge, and a bright future, thereby helping the village to develop more and more, and the border area to become stronger and stronger.”

Vice President of Green Gables - Sa Minh Dang said that the members of Green Gables, from children who were not yet full and worried, are always deeply grateful for what they have received to have what they have today. Green Gables Team believes that everyone has valuable assets in terms of knowledge, skills, ideas and also believes that sharing and giving away those values is even more important and valuable "Giving is receiving".

"After each completion of a school, we receive a lot of joy and feel our lives are more meaningful. From deep within each member, the desire to make personal efforts is more abundant. Everyone works hard to complete their study tasks to get the best results, doing extra work to contribute to the project," said Sa Minh Dang.
