(CLO) On November 23rd, Branch 1 of the Youth Union of the Central Office of the Vietnam Journalists Association organized the program "Accompanying children in mountainous areas to overcome difficulties - Joining hands to rebuild after Typhoon Yagi" with the desire to help, encourage, and share valuable and practical gifts with teachers and children at some schools in Meo Vac district, Ha Giang province.

On November 23rd, at Sung Mang Ethnic Boarding Junior High School in Meo Vac district, Ha Giang province, Branch 1 of the Youth Union of the Central Office of the Vietnam Journalists Association organized the handover of the renovated student dormitory at Sung Mang Ethnic Boarding Junior High School in Meo Vac district, Ha Giang province.

The handover ceremony for the dormitory building was held on November 23rd at Sung Mang Ethnic Boarding Junior High School, Meo Vac District, Ha Giang Province.

Previously, with the support and approval of the Party Committee of the Journalists and Public Opinion Newspaper; the assignment and trust of the Youth Union of the Central Office of the Vietnam Journalists Association; and in coordination with the Forest Protection Department of Meo Vac district, Ha Giang province, Branch 1 of the Youth Union of the Central Office of the Vietnam Journalists Association conducted a survey and found that the Sung Mang Ethnic Boarding Junior High School in Meo Vac district had many difficulties in terms of facilities, especially the dormitory for boarding students.

The dormitory rooms are in a state of disrepair (built 25 years ago). The corrugated iron roofs are corroded, punctured, and damaged; many pillars and beams are rotten and in danger of collapsing at any time; the walls and ceilings are crumbling, posing a safety risk to boarding students on rainy or windy days. Therefore, the school has to arrange for more than 30 students to share an old classroom with an area of ​​approximately 26 square meters.

Comrade Vu Tuan Anh - Deputy Secretary General of the Newspaper Journalists & Public Opinion, presents gifts to students with excellent academic achievements at Sung Mang Ethnic Boarding Junior High School.

With the desire to provide students with clean and stable places to eat and sleep so they can study well, Youth Union Branch 1 demonstrated a collective spirit, mobilizing donations from benefactors to support the school with over 100 million VND for the repair of the facility. With the coordination and assistance of the Meo Vac District Forest Management Unit, the construction was expedited and completed, ensuring quality, safety, and most importantly, providing students with a spacious, clean, and beautiful place to live and sleep.

Sharing his thoughts upon receiving the new building, Mr. Hoang Ngoc Khanh, Principal of Sung Mang Ethnic Boarding Junior High School, said that the dormitory building was severely dilapidated, especially during the recent Typhoon Yagi , which caused significant damage to the roof and many other structures. To ensure the safety of the students, the school had to arrange for them to share an old classroom. "The rooms are cramped, old, and make daily life difficult, especially affecting their academic performance," Mr. Khanh said.

The delegation and the teachers and students took a commemorative photo.

Comrade Hoang Ngoc Khanh expressed his deep gratitude to Branch 1 of the Youth Union of the Central Office of the Vietnam Journalists Association and all benefactors who joined hands to build a spacious and clean house, helping students have a good place to live. This is a great encouragement and motivation for the teachers and students of the school to study with peace of mind and strive for a better life.

At the event, Branch 1 of the Youth Union of the Central Office of the Vietnam Journalists Association presented gifts and milk, each worth 2 million VND, to five students with outstanding academic achievements at the school.
