At the ceremony, the parent of Le Thi Ngan Ha (Grade 3, Cam Loc Primary School) shared: “Her father was diagnosed with lung cancer in 2024, and since then, the entire financial burden has fallen on me. I do not have a stable job and take on whatever work is available, so my income is very unstable. Our family has borrowed more than VND 200 million to cover his treatment. We are truly fortunate that she has received support from Zhi Shan. This assistance is not only material but also a great source of encouragement for her and our whole family.”
According to a program representative, the Zhi Shan Foundation is currently supporting 581 disadvantaged pupils and students in Ha Tinh. In the 2025-2026 academic year, it is expected that 10 high school students will graduate and 44 university students in the program will complete their degrees.
The Zhi Shan Foundation’s scholarship program is maintained on a regular basis to help students overcome difficulties, continue their education, and improve both their learning conditions and long-term prospects.
