“The NSRP Scholarship Program has been positively evaluated by local authorities as well as local people. Therefore, we consider this a strategic program and hope to implement it in the long term to contribute to helping disadvantaged students continue to go to school as well as encourage them to strive to achieve good study results. In order to successfully implement this program in recent years, we have received the attention and cooperation of the local authorities, schools, and the Study Promotion Association at all levels, especially the Nghi Son Association of Education, our scholarship program implementation partner in Nghi Son District. Therefore, on this occasion, allow me, on behalf of NSRP, to express my thanks and hope to continue to receive the cooperation and support of you and your agencies during the upcoming time.” – Mr. Le Nguyen Quoc Vinh expressed his thought on behalf of NSRP Management,

Deputy General Director cum General Manager of Refinery Mr. Le Nguyen Quoc Vinh expressed his thought

No one should have their education limited due to a lack of household income. One of the most important scholarship benefits for society is that it gives us engineers, doctors, academics, nurses, lawyers, and scientists in the future from backgrounds that would make traditional college financial aid hard to secure. Giving to the society and local community is always one of NSRP’s top priorities. We find supporting education is the best way to invest. NSRP would love to be one of the “farmers” who plant the green and take care of the young shoots that grow day by day to bloom brilliantly one day.
