SWEATERS FOR POOR PUPILS IN SAPA

Aids including sweaters, winter boots, instant noodle, boxed milk were given to poor children in Ta Phin. In the recent snowfall, Ta Phin was one of the villages suffering badly. Poor children did not have good sweaters to go to school, many had to skip classes and stay home as outside was too cold.

Mr. Ha Tien Dung, Principal of Ta Phin Junior School said there had been some philanthropists who conducted activities at the school. The visit of Vietravel group was much appreciated and the support was meaningful as it helped poor children to keep their schooling uninterrupted through the cold winter.

For many years, Vietravel always pay a close attention to charity work at poor villages in the mountain province of Lao Cai, specially the district of Sapa, Muong Khuong and Simacai. Combining travel and charity is a solution to socialize charity and community sharing, where the travel company and its tourists join hands to give aids to people in need during a trip. This is one of the objectives that Vietravel is aiming at. The company hoped there would be more tourists joining the program and more support reaching children and people in Lao Cai.

Below are some images of Vietravel tourists coming to the poor children at Ta Phin village.

The cold of the Far North mountains was driven away by the appearance of kind-hearted tourists.
