Nurturing the dream of 1,200 disabled children going to school

On April 18, the program "Support to School 2025" organized by the Vietnam Fund for Children with Disabilities in collaboration with the Youth Union of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was launched in Hanoi.

This is the second year that “Support to School” has been organized. The program has become a lasting humanitarian initiative, connecting the community for the future of disabled children.

Not only is it a place to spread inspiration, the program is also a testament to the spirit of action, where each scholarship is an opportunity to continue going to class, each step is a commitment to share with the disadvantaged in society.

Support to School 2025 aims to award 1,200 scholarships (each worth 4 million VND, including cash and gifts) to disabled students in 12 provinces and cities across the country: Cao Bang , Ha Giang, Lao Cai, Lai Chau, Dien Bien, Quang Ninh, Kon Tum, Gia Lai, Dak Lak, Dak Nong, Tra Vinh, Tuyen Quang.

Ms. Duong Thi Bich Diep, Chairwoman of the Board of Directors of the Fund for Children with Disabilities in Vietnam, affirmed: “No physical barrier can prevent disabled children from having the desire to study and the dream of living up to their age. Helping children go to school is not only a charity program but also a sustainable social movement, where every contribution today is a solid stepping stone for the children’s future tomorrow.”

This year's program especially features real stories from the students, their families and teachers. That is the story of Tan Khanh Ly (Ha Giang), a blind student in class 4A3, sharing how she memorized the way by feeling her fingertips, and her love for learning Braille from her mother and teacher. Nguyen Ngoc Hanh ( Hanoi ), a student in class 6A3, is undergoing medical treatment, but despite being tired, she still tries to study and dreams of becoming a doctor in the future.

These stories cannot be told without the role of teachers like Mr. Do Minh Tien (Xa Dan School), who teaches with sign language and heart. Also at the event, representatives of the families and teachers of the two outstanding students directly shared their tireless journey of accompanying them to keep the learning rhythm for them.

Right at the launching ceremony, School Support 2025 recorded direct contributions from dozens of organizations, businesses and benefactors across the country.
