In September 2024 we proudly sponsored all the costs for the upcoming school term at the Kim Son Charity School. This incredible institution provides free primary schooling to local youngsters from poor families. We were happy to pay for new school uniforms, backpacks, textbooks, and school supplies for all the children.
The nuns at the school held a ceremony for the first day of school and presented all the children with their gifts. Then everyone got snacks and ice cream! It was a lovely day!
Sponsoring the children’s education was made possible through a corporate donation from Capital Group. Thank you!!!
ABOUT THE KIM SON CHARITY SCHOOL
This wonderful organization offers free primary school education at their charity school, plus free sewing skills training at their free vocational school for those who live in Vinh Luong ward, 15 kilometers north of Nha Trang. Founded at the Kim Son Pagoda in 1994 by the Buddhist nun Thich Nu Dieu Phuc, it has long been a loving source of education for local youngsters. There are classrooms which grades 1 to 5 split in morning and afternoon shifts, and another room with donated sewing machines for those who want to learn tailoring skills. All the children are from poor families, and the school exists through the kindness of donations.
