Greetings everyone!
I am Quynh Anh (Elsa), a student at the Saigon South International School and the Founder and President of the charity organization 4TheYouth Foundation, the social enterprise Vietnam Public Forum Academy, the non-profit organization Inspire Youth Debate, and Vietnam Public Forum’s National Talented Youth Team.
We are currently working to develop the “Landfill Cinderella” program, which includes building online libraries and organizing weekly activities and teaching sessions for children in challenging circumstances. More details can be found here: (https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=122108342900192598&id=61555777947114)

Additionally, we warmly invite parents, siblings, friends, and students to accompany us to the library’s opening and participate in the various fun activities and gift-giving at the two facilities mentioned above.
