Purpose: The project " Companion and poor children to school " from the volunteers at Green Peace Club Thai Nguyen , will help 48 poor children who are in a difficult family situations in Cao Bien hamlet, Vo Nhai district, Thai Nguyen province. All these children families live in areas surrounded by poor infrastructure and mountainous roads. From their living areas to the school, the children have to walk 3km of mountain roads, which make the journey quite a long one but also a dangerous and tiring one.

Moreover, once they reach the school, they meet another hardship which is the poor facilities that are provided by the school, classrooms are made of lime and soil, and the roof is made of leaves.

This project will help to improve the studying environment of the children but also the family’s precarious situation.

Some of the main activities of the project:

- Rebuild the classroom for the children, making the infrastructure more advanced

- Give presents and encourage children to go to school

- Help the children with books and academic contents

- Plan entertainment days for the children with games and other activities.
