Now at its fifth consecutive year encouraging active reading for children under the theme “Fulfil Your Dreams And Happiness”, Shinhan Finance has donated 50 new bookshelves to 10 public libraries in need of more books for their local children.
Hai Phong City and Quang Ninh Province, 25 November 2022 – Shinhan Vietnam Finance Company Ltd., (Shinhan Finance), which was recognized and named The Best Sustainability Development Company Vietnam 2020*, announced its book project which contributed 1481 new children books from Kim Dong Publisher - the largest publisher and distributor of children's books in Vietnam to Hai Phong city library and Quang Ninh province library, which are in need of better-quality books.
To date, the Project has been to 10 libraries across Vietnam, donated 49 new bookshelves with nearly 20.000 books and decorated 10 reading rooms, including Nam Dinh, Thua Thien Hue, Bac Giang, Tien Giang, Ha Nam, Hanoi, Dong Nai, An Giang, Hai Phong, and Quang Ninh public libraries.
In the fifth consecutive year of this project themed “Fulfil Your Dreams And Happiness”, which is extended to promote active reading among Vietnamese children, it continues to support the company’s commitment to advocate literacy and a reading culture to better equip the future generation.
In Vietnam, children are keen to read textbooks for academic reasons than reading books outside the school syllabus. The importance of enhancing the accessibility of books in the public libraries and providing a variety of contents are often highlighted to promote active reading as a powerful tool to encourage children to pick up and finish a book themselves.
