VietHope has emerged as a revolutionary force in Vietnam’s educational landscape, offering vital

support to underprivileged students since its founding in 2002. By integrating monetary scholarships with capacity-building projects, the organization confronts both urgent fiscal barriers and enduring developmental needs.

### Beginnings and Mission https://viethope.com.vn/

Founded in 2002 by Vietnamese-American students at Harvard University, VietHope aimed to resolve systemic academic imbalances in Vietnam. The group’s mandate—to equip low-income students through opportunities to learning—arises from acknowledgement that financial hardship remains the primary barrier to academic continuation.
