Along with “internal strength”, what makes generations of Ha Tinh people strive tirelessly for the path of education is the encouragement of their families, clans, and the support of the whole society. The province has funds to encourage learning and talent to support children in difficult circumstances to excel in their studies; the journey to help students in remote areas go to school has attracted thousands of participants. Honoring and encouraging learning and morality has created a learning society.

According to Mr. Nguyen Xuan Truong, Vice President of the Ha Tinh Education Promotion Association, up to now, this province has nearly 5,600 families establishing education promotion committees. Fundraising has become a routine and responsibility of each family and individual.

Every year, the clans hold activities to honor and reward their children with good academic achievements. On average, every year, tens of thousands of students across the province receive gifts from the clans before the new school year. Thanks to that, over the centuries, the source of learning in Hong Lam land has continued to flow and become increasingly abundant, never running out.
