In the past, children in the preschool age of Hop Hoa commune did not have a centralized school but attended 8 school branches which were distributed in small villages. There is a school branch that borrows a village cultural house to be a class.

All these school branches have been very degraded and unsafe for children on rainy days. Children 's supplies in the classroom are also very inadequate, not enough to meet the learning and living needs of children. The absence of centralized school site also hampers children's opportunities to participate in collective activities and extracurricular program, as well as the quality of meals - children's lunch breaks are also not guaranteed.

In response to that situation, GNI has implemented the project "Letter of hope" to build in Hop Hoa commune a new and spacious school including 10 classrooms and 6 toilets, one operator building, one kitchen, one school gate, 95 meters fence and 1,348m² concrete playground. The project worth VND 6,5 billion (USD 279.500).

The new school expects to bring better learning and living conditions for 580 preschool children from 3 - 5 years old, contributing to improving the quality of education in Hop Hoa commune.
