Binh Thuan (VNA) – Former State Vice President Truong My Hoa, who leads the “For Beloved Hoang Sa - Truong Sa” Club, presented a membership certificate to Lavite Corporation during her visit to the company's factory in Phan Thiet city, the south-central coastal province of Binh Thuan, on June 27.
Speaking at the event, Hoa, who is also President of the Vu A Dinh Scholarship Fund, said the club, founded in 2014, is a social-humanitarian organisation that gathers individuals and organisations with a shared devotion to the country’s maritime sovereignty. Currently, the club has built a network of 180 collective members, with 146 based in Vietnam and 34 located abroad. This includes over 5,350 individual members and thousands of online supporters through social media.
A Lavite representative expressed pride in joining the club, describing the recognition as both an honour and a responsibility. The company pledged to actively support upcoming club activities, including organising visits to Truong Sa, the DK1 platform, and southwestern islands.
Lavite also plans to provide scholarships for children of fishermen, naval and border guard personnel, donate funds for the construction of houses for social policy beneficiaries of the naval forces, and distribute Tet gifts to poor coastal communities in the Mekong Delta.
On this occasion, Lavite donated 50 million VND (about 1,916 USD) to the Vu A Dinh Scholarship Fund, which was set up to support disadvantaged students in island areas and ethnic groups.
Since 1999, the fund has awarded over 130,000 scholarships to ethnic minority students, children of fishermen and soldiers working in border and island areas. Beyond financial aid, it has also launched long-term initiatives to train young people from remote coastal areas./.
