Although it receives attention and support from the People’s Committee of Nghe An province as well as domestic and foreign benefactors, the children’s living conditions are still difficult and lacking.
Specifically, although there are a total of 365 students in the school, there are only 6 bedrooms, space is cramped and lacking, students still have to sleep together 3-4 on a 1,1 meters bed. Furthermore, the school does not have separate toilets for children and teachers, so currently children have to go to the toilet in the forest no matter how cold the weather and wind are.
Understanding and sympathizing with those difficulties, SUN SHINE hopes that in the coming time, we will continue to accompany the school and government units of Nghe An province to gradually improve learning facilities to help teachers have better working conditions and the students have a better learning environment. Specifically, SUN SHINE will support the school to build separate toilets for the children, then expand the dining room and bedroom to make it more spacious and comfortable.
