However, with a compassionate heart, many individuals and units have timely supported learning equipment for students that have difficult family circumstances so that they are able learn online without worries.

Chanh Nghia Junior High School (Thu Dau Mot City) presents online learning equipment to disadvantaged students.

To aid disadvantaged students

At beginning of the 2021-2022 new school year, provincial Department of Education and Training had an open letter calling for donations and support of online learning equipment for disadvantaged students in the province. After that, provincial Fatherland Front Committee also sent a letter to launch a program named "Computers for children". Responding to the call of the province, education and training branch, many individuals, organizations and unions immediately joined hands for this.

In order not to let students worry about having no learning equipment, Department of Education and Training immediately directly and quickly give equipment donated to students. Through face mask, their expressions were not clear as receiving the learning equipment, but happiness gleamed in their eyes.

From the department's open letter as well as the call of provincial Fatherland Front, municipal Education and Training Offices also sent this message to educational training institutions in districts, towns and cities. Since then, the love and care for disadvantaged students has continued to be spread and multiplied. The number of students receiv learning equipment increases every day. Even rural areas, such as Phu Giao, Dau Tieng and North Tan Uyen districts, also received timely support.

Nguyen Van Chet, Head of Thu Dau Mot City Office of Education and Training, happily said that, from the program "Computers for children", not a single disadvantaged student in the city was left behind. At beginning of the school year, the city's education and training branch had 743 students lacking online learning equipment. With the attention and support of the authorities, branches, levels, benefactors, school administrators, this branch has fully aided disadvantaged students with online learning equipment. Some children also received textbooks and notebooks before the new school year.

In addition, schools also called for the support of benefactors and students' parents to donate online learning equipment to students. With the valuable contributions of teachers, parents and benefactors, Chanh Nghia Secondary School (Thu Dau Mot City) presented 7 smartphones and 8 scholarships to disadvantaged students.

It is touching when preschools also shared difficulties and joined this campaign to provide online learning devices for children. For example, Vo Thi Sau Kindergarten  Di An City. After the school sent the letter of Provincial Fatherland Front Committee to parents' groups, many parents took part in sponsorship. As a result, the school donated 10 smartphones with a total value of 35.5 million VND to students of primary and secondary schools of the city.
