Nguyễn Ngoc Huyền Trân

Trân’s story highlights the challenges faced by large families living in poverty. A 4th-grade student at Thuan Nam 3 Primary School, Trân lives with her parents and three younger siblings. Her father, the main breadwinner, earns about 5 million VND (approximately $213) per month from daily labor work.

Despite their difficult situation, Trân’s parents are determined to send her to school for a better future. Trân shows remarkable responsibility, helping her parents care for her siblings and clean the house after school. The Thien Chi organization is hoping to provide Trân with a monthly scholarship of 300,000 VND (about $13) to support her education.
