Light Up the Smile in the Highlands 2023: Contributing to Build a Warm Winter for Children in Bat Xat, Lao Cai
On January 13, 2024, the charity journey “Bringing Smiles to the Highlands 2023” officially kicked off to support Nam Pen 1 Branch School – Sang Ma Sao Semi-Boarding Primary School for Ethnic Minorities – Sang Ma Sao, Bat Xat, Lao Cai.
After nearly a month of launching the campaign, GMO raised over 76 million VND – a record-breaking amount to date – and used it to implement the following activities:
- Construction of toilet and bathing facilities
- Donation of a “Green Library”: 2 bookshelves and 2 storage cabinets
- Donation of 1 portable loudspeaker
- Donation of 100 gift sets to children at Nam Pen 1 Branch School and Nam Pen Kindergarten
After days of cold drizzle in Bat Xat district, the road to the school became muddy and more difficult than ever. However, seeing the innocent faces, the bright smiles, and the heartfelt thank-yous from the children when receiving gifts made all the hardship of the 6-hour journey seem to melt away.
Sincere thanks to all G-Runners and kind-hearted individuals across the country who joined hands with GMO-Z.com RUNSYSTEM in creating a better learning environment and a brighter future for the children in the highlands.
