Locating in Mai Pha commune, Lang Son city, the school will comprise classrooms, library, an entertainment area, a canteen and restrooms. It is built with a total budget of nearly VND 20 billion (USD 863,400). Of the figure, more than VND 8 billion (USD 346,000) will be funded by Samsung Vietnam to finance facility building, equipment purchase, and management cost, which will be directly managed by KFHI and the remaining amount will be mobilized from charity organizations and Samsung Vietnam.

It will also serve as a venue for the “Child Development Program (CDP)” with extracurricular training activities such as fine arts, music, information technology, and foreign languages, as well as exchange and health check-up activities.

In particular, the project also has a collaboration with MSD Vietnam (Management and Sustainable Development Institute) - a Vietnamese non-government organization to support the training of teachers before they participating in teaching at the school, thereby contributing to educational development of the locality especially primary and secondary education.

After it is completed, around 300 elementary and secondary school students from impoverished families in the province will enjoy a comprehensive education combining studying and healthy practices.
