ANTD.VN - With the initiative "Building hope, building the future", each transaction from 300,000 VND via VPBank Mastercard, 7,100 VND will be contributed to the program "Couple of loving leaves" through the Tam Long Viet Fund to build 10 schools for children in remote areas.
With limited socio -economic conditions, children in mountainous provinces often face many difficulties in accessing education and lack essential learning facilities such as solidly built schools, books or other learning materials. Understanding this, VPBank and Mastercard have just cooperated to implement the initiative "Building Hope, Building the Future", to provide support and promote a sustainable educational journey for children in difficult circumstances.
The initiative was launched with the first Mastercard Kids Run 2023 for children held in Hanoi on October 7. With the cooperation of VPBank Mastercard cardholders, this initiative will contribute to the “Couple of Loving Leaves” program through the Tam Long Viet Fund - Vietnam Television (VTV), with the goal of building 10 schools, kitchens and purchasing school supplies and food for children in difficult circumstances in remote areas of Vietnam.
Specifically, in October and November 2023, for every transaction made with a VPBank Mastercard debit or credit card of VND 300,000 or more, Mastercard will contribute VND 7,100 to the Tam Long Viet Fund to sponsor the “Pair of Loving Leaves” program. The “Pair of Loving Leaves” program will conduct surveys in localities in need and connect with initiatives to build or renovate schools.
