Early morning, many ethnic people and poor children were present at the gift venue. Due to Jo Ngay is a commune with the poverty rate at approximately 90%, the proportion of malnourished children under 5 years old accounting for 80%, the gifts of FPT Polytechnic have brought about both physical and mental meanings.
"During November or December annually, periods of very cold weather, people here must struggle with the severe weather to continue living and working without adequate food and clothing. Because the children are not warm enough, they often leave school due to suffering from respiratory and joint diseases", Jo Ngay’s representative said.
"Warm winter for Dong Giang" is the gift program for poor households and kids organized by FPT Polytechnic to solve partly the difficulties Jo Ngay people must face, helping them cope with the harsh winter.
