TCP Group, TCP Vietnam Co., in collaboration with the Vietnam Youth Federation Central Committee (CVYF) and the National Volunteer Center (VVC), jointly held the launch ceremony for the "Community Sport Yard - Energizing Vietnamese Youth" project, while also inaugurating the second yard in Da Nang City.

The event was attended by Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Luong, Permanent Secretary of HCYU, Permanent Secretary of Central Vietnam Youth Federation (CVYF); Mr. Nguyen Kim Quy, Member of the Standing Committee of HCYU, Head of Department of Youth Unity and Mobilization, Permanent Vice President of CVYF; Ms. Do Thi Kim Hoa - Member of the Presidium of CVYF and Director of the VCC; Ms. Arjaree Suwangool, Corporate Affairs & Communications Director of TCP Group; Mr. Nguyen Quang Hien Huy, Managing Director of TCP Vietnam along with representatives from the Da Nang Provincial Youth Union, Vietnam Youth Federation of Da Nang, various local departments, branches, Party committees, authorities, local residents, and numerous journalists and reporters from central and local media agencies.

The event was organized to launch the program nationwide, while also introducing and officially opening the Community Sports Yard in Da Nang City. The yard has been designed to meet the community's exercise needs and has undergone improvements, including upgraded grounds and the installation of sports equipment, creating a valuable environment for local youth to enhance both their physical and mental well-being. During the ceremony, delegates, journalists, media representatives, as well as local youth and residents, toured the community sports area and participated in exercise activities using the newly upgraded equipment.

The community sports yard in Da Nang City, part of the Project, has been repaired, renovated, and upgraded, covering a total area of approximately 1,000 square meters, including a basketball court, a volleyball court, a pickleball court and various modern equipment and facilities. The renovations and improvements include resurfacing the yards; enhancing the green spaces; adding outdoor fitness equipment such as portable basketball hoops badminton nets and posts, and multifunctional sports equipment. Additionally, cabinets and recycling bins have also been added to encourage residents to collect and sort waste at the source, contributing to environmental protection and minimizing the waste of reusable materials. These upgrades are tailored to meet the long-term practical conditions and usage needs of the local community, creating a convenient space for youth and residents to engage in outdoor recreational and fitness activities.

To date, two sports yards under the Project have been inaugurated, including the Thanh Hoa yard (inaugurated on October 4) and the Da Nang yard (October 13). Three more yards are expected to be completed in October in Can Tho, Bac Giang, and Ho Chi Minh City. Additionally, four more projects in Dong Nai, Bac Ninh, Binh Duong, and Nghe An provinces are expected to be inaugurated in 2024.

The implementation plan describes a program that focuses on renovating and upgrading yards to transform them into sports structures that align with practical conditions and needs. Over a period of three years (from 2024 to 2026), a total of 20 projects are expected to be completed. These projects aim to provide high-quality community sports yards, especially for youth in underserved areas where training facilities are lacking.

Mr. Nguyen Quang Hien Huy, Managing Director of TCP Vietnam, shared: "For over five years, TCP Vietnam has consistently invested in the youth generation – dynamic individuals who are pioneers in contributing to societal development. We recognize the pressing need to create more community sports yards. Today’s inauguration ceremony of the ‘Community Sport Yard - Energizing Vietnamese Youth’ is not only a significant step toward providing high-quality sports facilities for young people but also demonstrates our commitment to improving health and quality of life for the younger generation and the entire community. These efforts further emphasize TCP's three key strategies: Fulfilling - Growing – Caring, guided by the “Energizing a Better World for All” purpose. We believe that this program will spread positive energy to the community, empowering the comprehensive development of youth and contributing to promoting physical fitness and building a strong future for Vietnamese society".

Mr. Nguyen Kim Quy, Member of the Standing Committee of HCYU, Head of Department of Youth Unity and Mobilization, Permanent Vice President of CVYF stated at the inauguration ceremony: "The ‘Community Sport Yard - Energizing Vietnamese Youth’ project is inaugurated and gifted to the youth and people of Nai Hien Dong Ward, Son Tra District, Da Nang City, on a special occasion when the Vietnam Youth Federation Central Committee held the ceremony to commemorate the 68th anniversary of the Federation's traditional day and honor outstanding Youth Federation officers nationwide in Da Nang. This is one of nine projects being presented in nine provinces and cities in 2024 to celebrate the 9th National Congress of the Vietnam Youth Federation, term 2024-2029. With the spirit of ‘Energizing Vietnamese Youth’, the youth sports yard project will provide young people with a place to train, develop physically, and enhance their spiritual well-being, thereby adding energy and awakening the youthful spirit of Vietnamese youth. I highly appreciate the attention and support from TCP Group and TCP Vietnam in contributing to the lives of young people, promoting the movement for sports and health, and improving the quality of life. This, in turn, drives the development of Vietnamese youth. I hope that, in the future, organizations, businesses, and individuals will continue to collaborate and support sports training activities for youth, contributing to building a generation of healthy, energetic, and positive Vietnamese youth".

Footballer Nguyen Tien Linh, an ambassador for the program, shared: "I am very honored to accompany this project as a campaign ambassador. As an athlete, I understand the importance of having a quality sports space for training and development. This project offers a fantastic opportunity for young people and serves as an inspiration, promoting sportsmanship and a healthy lifestyle, thereby improving the health and physical fitness of the Vietnamese people".

With the trust of the Vietnam Youth Federation Central Committee and the enthusiastic support from the community, TCP Vietnam will continue to implement meaningful programs and activities, supporting and accompanying the youth while fulfilling its corporate social responsibility to build a sustainable enterprise that grows in parallel with the development of Vietnam's younger generation in the future.
