Vietnamobile on September 22 cooperates with the Central Youth Union of Vietnam to award scholarships to students from 20 colleges throughout the country with a total worth approaching 600 million dong support and encourage students who, despite their disadvantaged background, have demonstrated strong will and made high performance.
 
Similarly, as part of the 5-year scholarship partnership deal with six colleges of the Polytechnics, Hanoi National University, Da Nang University, HCMC Economics School and Can Tho University, Vietnamobile will proceed on with the scholarship granting this year with these colleges. All in all, Vietnamobile will hand over more than 900 million dong worth of scholarships to underprivileged students nationwide.
 
In parallel to the award of scholarship, Vietnamobile and the Youth Union will work together to launch a “Welcome Gala” for the freshmen as a moral boost ahead of a successful new school year. Vietnamobile also creates opportunities for students to practice part- time jobs to help them more confident before college graduation.

“We value and appreciate the timely and practical assistance of such companies as Vietnamobile, which have not only worked to achieve good business performance but made an example of corporate social responsibility commitment, one of the factors that guarantee the sustainable development of the organization. We are delighted to have Vietnamobile as the first company to ever provide support to poor students via the S Gate website, the first Youth Union’s website designed to create a link between the business donors and disadvantaged students. Programs like these will help thousands and thousands of underprivileged students to well resume their education in preparation for good future social contribution”, beamed Mr. Nguyen Dac Vinh –Secretary of the Youth Union cum President of Vietnam Student Association.
 
“Following the success story and efficiency of the 6-college scholarship initiative in the past few years, Vietnamobile looks to scale up the program to include more colleges and determined poor students in the entire country as the beneficiary of our modest contribution,” remarked underscored Elizabete Fong, Vietnamobile CEO.
