In life, nothing is too difficult if your dreams are big enough. Each dream ignited is a way to make a brighter future. However, for Mr. Dieu Vuot, a student recently sponsored by the Dan On Foundation for a Master’s scholarship in Social Work at the University of Social Sciences and Humanities in Ho Chi Minh City, his dream is the flame that ignites the fervent dreams of many other children.
Dan On Foundation Awarded Scholarship to Mr. Dieu Vuot
Every year, the foundation organizes support events for schools in remote areas, providing modern electronic devices like desktop computers and laptops to help students become familiar with technology. We also donate books and prepare warm meals for the children. For the Dan On Foundation, a child’s background is just a part of their past, not a determinant of their future. Access to education and career opportunities is what truly shapes their future. Therefore, the foundation’s mission is to ensure educational equality, meet the demand for high-quality education, and indirectly open up more career options for these children.
Điểu Vượt, born in 1998 and a member of the M’nong ethnic group from Đắk Nông province, graduated with honors in Sociology from Bình Dương University. He is known for his skill book for students, “Strong Luggage, Golden Future,” and is a visiting lecturer in Social Work at Bình Dương College of Technology and Trade Union Training. Vượt is also a frequent guest speaker at workshops and talk shows at various universities and colleges, such as Văn Hiến University, Ho Chi Minh City University of Education, and Saigon Polytechnic College.

From his background and journey in seeking educational opportunities, Điểu Vượt recognized the importance of education for expanding his mindset and accessing career opportunities, particularly with the rapid advancement of AI. He developed a passion for becoming a university lecturer in Social Work and Sociology and initiated educational projects to enhance skills and critical thinking for ethnic minority students in Vietnam. He plans to establish a scholarship fund and a skills education center for these students, aiming to bridge the gap between schools and businesses by 2027. To achieve these goals, he understands the need to meet specific skill and expertise requirements.

Mr. Dan On, the founder of the foundation, agreed to award him a scholarship worth nearly 70 million VND for two years of study, covering four semesters of his Master’s program. This decision came after Vượt announced his official acceptance and enrollment in December 2023.
