Dao Dieu Huyen (student of class 6C - Bach Ha Secondary School) on behalf of students who were given computers said: "My family's situation is difficult, since my father is paralyzed, my mother left me when I was just 4 years old and I was raised by my grandmother.  Our only source of income is grandmother's vegetable and pomelo garden, so when the pandemic strikes, I have difficulty learning online because I have no equipment. Fortunately, with the attention of the leaders of Hanoi Department of Education and Training and the sponsors, me and other students in difficult circumstances have computers for online study. So from now on, I can join my classmates in studying online."

In addition to donating tablet computers, from the beginning of 2021, 3600 officers and employees of CMC have actively participated in charity activities.
