Teachers plant the seeds of knowledge, that will last a life time...
Education is one of Kinh5 Foundation's core values. During 2011, a “School Infrastructure” project rolled out nicely to rebuild Kinh5 School's fence, gate, and yard. And most importantly, a motivational momentum was created during the awards and scholarship event. We saw that students were listening carefully during the ceremony, taking on the advice of LM Mai Xuan Triet and Mr. Trong's presentation.
The program will be continuing for the years to come. After the fall of Saigon in 1975, the education system has been degrading all the way until recent years. We have seen plenty of improvement lately however. It is a little too late to prepare for high schol and college at this moment., so we are primarily focusing on kindergarteners, elementary, and middle schoolers so that they will be ready when the country is turning around in a positive direction.
Providing better school infrastructures, classroom materials, advance teacher programs and awards and sponsorships for outstanding students, will motivate and help keep students in school and away from drugs, sexually transmitted diseases, human trafficking, etc.
Our commitment is to "help one-child-at-a-time, without leaving anyone behind" We need your help to make this dream come true…As said by the United Negro College Fund in 1972, ""A mind is a terrible thing to waste."
