Lying in a mountainous area some 40 kilometres from the district's centre, Xem Dot Primary School used to have only two classrooms for 35 students who are from the Thai ethnic group.

After over twenty years of use, the classrooms had badly deteriorated, posing dangers for teachers and students. There were no playgrounds, WCs, or clean water.

With financial support from Dantri's readers and other donors, the newspaper had invested over VND500 million to upgrade and build facilities at the school.

"In addition to these projects, we're also carrying out other charitable activities, including building houses for low-income people and presenting student health insurance cards," Toan said. In this Thuong Xuan District, we've built six houses for low-income people and two schools in the past two years."

Attending the event, Cam Ba Dung, vice chairman of Thuong Xuan District People's Committee, said that the valuable support by kind donors, the Ministry of Labour, Invalids, and Social Affairs, and Dantri Newspaper, with nearly ten construction projects, has helped improve the lives of many low-income people in his area over the past two years.

"Our school was built in 2003 and has badly deteriorated after 21 years," Sang said. "Our teachers and students have hoped for better new facilities, but due to the limited local budget, we've been unable to arrange investment for many years. We thank Dantri Newspaper and the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs for your great support."
