The school cost 80,033 USD, with a 75,193 USD donation put forward by the UK’s Prudential Group, and the rest covered by Plan Vietnam, a non-governmental organisation active in the region.

Many children therefore cannot be accommodated by schools due to a shortage of classrooms.
On this occasion, the school’s staff and students received gifts from the donors and local educational authorities. The commune’s poorest households will additionally receive bicycles, desks, school supplies and any other commodities required to support the children’s education.-VNA
