Activity News in August

SCDI presents to readers the Children and Youth Program’s outstanding activities in August 2024

Breaking the Cycle & One Egg a Day prepares for school enrollment

In August, the Breaking the Cycle project and the One Egg a Day program organized meaningful activities to support children in preparing for the new school year.

Since early August, SCDI has provided school supplies to 320 kids in Ho Chi Minh City, lessening the load on parents and making the kids happy. These donations, which are categorized by grade level, originate from SCDI employees, contributors, and the One Egg a Day program. With this assistance, kids feel more confident and well-prepared for the upcoming school year.

With the help of volunteers and parents, Breaking the Cycle Project held an activity session kick-off for the new school year in Hanoi on August 24th. The kids got to interact and talk about their hopes and ambitions for the upcoming school year. Dreams like becoming an astronaut, passing the high school entrance exam, improving math and literature test scores, or creating a ton of drawings are all documented. The dream notes will be thoughtfully preserved by the project team and given back to the kids when the school year ends as a keepsake that will allow them to reflect on their journey.
