The central and north central provinces of Thua Thien-Hue, Quang Tri and Quang Binh have been hit hard by storms and floods in recent times. More than 120 people in the region have been killed or gone missing. Numerous schools have been destroyed and more than 1.2 million students have been out of school. Many of them would not be able to return to school due to financial hardships.
All donations as well as scholarship handover programs will be updated in time on the Saigon Times Group’s publications.
