Introduce of Viet Nam project



Idea of activity

1.   We support children who have to give up going to school, because of economic problem. [subsidy]

2.   We cooperate with an educational institution and try to improve educational system of Vietnam. [improvement with an educational institution in Vietnam]

3.   We deepen understanding each other through culture exchange, and live up to "education". Which means "grow together".








Contents of active

We have 2 projects: scholarship active and exchange program.
With these projects, we know about Viet Nam and think about Japan again. Also we think what poverty is, what support is and what kindness is.
We ask ourselves what we can do.



scholarship program

  We support children who has trouble to go to school and has possibility to drop out from school. It had been thinking from the beginning of JUNKO Association and started 1997. Now we support $770 to 5 school(about 39 students). In summer we give "selection paper" (paper which is written why you choose this student) to teacher and write it.
And spring we pay a home visit and research, next summer we start to support.

A.subsidy:   continuous support. Support from elementary school to Junior high school.
$15 /per

B.subsidy:   Renewal every year and support. $20/per



Exchange program

This program started in 2001. Because we thought, we want to know more, want to approach and want to make good relationship with them. Vietnam is the Socialist Republic country, recently government try to improve education at last. But they couldn't improve except mainly subject for example music, art and moral education yet.
We want to supplement this situation with our exchange program, and want to bring out children's ability. We take elementary school and Junior high school as an object of exchange program.

Elementary school::
  we did some kind of game that uses body. We made something with JUNKO school student. And children draw picture "What do you want to be in the future". Recently we did Japanese class or Japan true and false quiz to introduce Japan.

Junior High school::
  Introduce Japanese culture.
Draw portrait each other.

Introduce of Danang

We are active in Danang which is center part of Vietnam. Danang has 720,000people and there area of Danang is 1200km. Ancient times they trade with another country frequently. Sea and mountain surrounded Danand city, center of city Han River flow.

They have much nature; on the other hand they have rail road air port and big bridge which has beautiful illumination. After Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh, Danang is the third city and government give Economy First Grade to Danang city. Danang is lively city!!


Junko Association member's opinion about Danang.

「Lovers enjoy their time by the river. Nobody walk alone. They wear old clothes and teeth are chipping but they had wonderful smile. When we pay a home visit, we can't understand which family member is, because they had good relationship with neighborhood. They live back to back with each other」
Center part of city they have many motor bike, and walk a little we can go beautiful beach. Time passes very slowly. Danang is full of smile.
It is very unforgettable that children's smile, people who have a pleasant talk at cafe in a day time and scene which many parents wait for their children front of school rainy day.
