As part of the "School Renovation" project, FPT funded the repairing and painting of five schools in Son Ha district, Quang Ngai province. This initiative is designed to upgrade the schools' appearance and enhance the learning environment, ensuring students return for the 2024-2025 academic year to newly renovated, cleaner, and safer facilities. The total contribution for this project is 150 million VND.

Additionally, FPT donated teaching equipment, two TVs, and 150 gifts to students. The Corporation also awarded "Wings to Dream" scholarships to students from disadvantaged backgrounds to support their educational advancement.

FPT CEO Nguyen Van Khoa remarked at the program, "Over the past 36 years, FPT has consistently prioritized community support, especially for children and students in challenging areas. With over 80% of its students being ethnic minorities, Lang Re School may have a small student body, but it plays a crucial role in nurturing the future generation of our country. I hope that through the contributions of our employees, we can help these students overcome obstacles and feel the warmth and support that FPT offers today."

In addition to renovating schools in Quang Ngai, FPT, in collaboration with the Trade Union of the MOST, donated equipment and facilities to the Vo Hong Son Center for Children with Disabilities.

The event was honored by the presence of key figures from Quang Ngai province and the Trade Union of the MOST. Representing Quang Ngai were Mr. Nguyen Hoang Giang, Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee, and Mr. Tran Hoang Tuan, Standing Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee. From the Trade Union of the MOST, attendees included Mr. Ha Quoc Trung, Chairman, and Mr. Do Xuan Ngoc, Standing Vice Chairman.

With a total contribution of over 100 million VND, FPT aims to enhance learning conditions for students with disabilities, enabling them to access better education and create new opportunities for community integration. This meaningful gift not only provides material support but also offers motivation and hope to children as they overcome challenges.

We hope that the staff and children of the Center will overcome their challenges and contribute to making Quang Ngai not only a land of revolutionary tradition but also a beacon of compassion and love."

This initiative serves as a lighthouse of happiness, uniting compassionate hearts to spread positive values to the children of Quang Ngai and the wider community. Every participant, from FPT leaders to employees, embodies a spirit of generosity and empathy, driven by a desire to uplift those in need. Each gift and completed project reflects a heartfelt commitment and best wishes for the children's future.

Throughout its 36-year journey of growth and development, FPT has remained committed to its mission of fostering happiness. Guided by the principle that true happiness comes from contributing to the community, FPT strives to share and promote positive societal values. The Corporation has invested over 1,000 billion VND in social initiatives, with a strong focus on supporting education and advancing local economic development.

One of the standout projects that FPT employees take great pride in is their collective effort to establish Hope School, a sanctuary for children orphaned by the COVID-19 pandemic. To date, the school has welcomed over 300 children from 41 provinces and cities, all benefiting from the love and support of more than 70,000 FPT employees, as well as numerous generous individuals and organizations. Many of these students have won national and city awards and secured university scholarships.

During the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2021, FPT supported Quang Ngai through the "Computers for Children" program initiated by the Hope Foundation. The Corporation provided 100 computer sets to disadvantaged students, ensuring they could continue their studies uninterrupted during periods of social distancing.
