MIPEC's volunteer team reached the Hoa Lan and Lao Chai kindergartens after passing more than 300km of sloppy and rugged mountain roads. They are two among many sites which were heavily damaged by the recent flash flood. Tables, chairs, and lots of other furniture in these facilities had been completely destroyed by the floods, which have made teaching and learning activities very difficult. Understanding the difficulties and hardship of teachers and students of Hoa Lan and Lao Chai kindergartens, MIPEC gave them 140 tables, 280 chairs and 150 wooden kid beds to help them better prepare for the New School Year.
