Scholarships support the
education of poor children attending the Bansay Strien Primary School,
Tmor Kol District in Battambang. The school educates about 425
students in two shifts (AM and PM) in 10 classrooms with 9 teachers who
also work in farming to support themselves financially.
The scholarship ceremony on November 8th
at the People's Committee headquarters of Binh Chanh district where we
awarded 30 ETC scholarships to children from three schools was
very enjoyable and rewarding. We were entertained by the performances
of the children, especially the boy who sang the song to thank the
teachers. The visit to the Tieu Hoc Vinh Loc school was a pleasure.
