What We Do
Building brighter futures through education and opportunities
A Thousand Hopes is dedicated to creating brighter futures for children and adolescents in developing countries through education and opportunities.
We collaborate directly with schools to identify their needs, ensuring our support aligns with our mission to provide timely assistance. By continuously following up with schools and their students, we aim to empower them to build a better future for themselves and future generations. Our commitment is to offer sustained support, fostering long-term educational impacts and personal growth.
A Thousand Hopes runs projects in the following focus areas
Promoting Reading Cultures
Our fundraising initiative and books/libraries adoption programs aim to contribute to the construction of libraries, fostering knowledge hubs that empower communities with valuable resources and opportunities for growth.
Educational Support
Through our fundraising efforts and student sponsorship programs, we aim to provide monetary support that recognize those individuals who, despite financial challenges, demonstrate outstanding academic achievements.
Adopt a Book 2025 Projects are HERE. We are Continuously Updating this Space.
We’re currently working behind the scenes to prepare Adopt a Book 2025, which will support 4 schools with approximately 3,000 books, reaching over 2,400 students from grades 1 to 12 in Vinh Long and Gia Lai province, Vietnam.
Find out below our first projects of 2025. More projects and more books will be updated very soon.
Our Current Project
Nguyen Tat Thanh Secondary School, Phu Thien District, Gia Lai Province
Nestled in the remote commune of Ia Yeng in Gia Lai province, Nguyen Tat Thanh Secondary School serves 297 students with over 97% of whom are from ethnic minority communities. With 85 students coming from low-income or near-poor households, access to educational resources is not just limited. It’s scarce.
Our Past Projects
In 2024, we worked with 2 schools to support them with 183 books / book sets with total 265 books, potentially reaching more than 2,050 students.
Thanh Duc secondary school, Vinh Long
Thanh Duc Secondary School in Long Ho Commune, Vinh Long Province, Vietnam, is home to 650 students, but its small library is in need of support. Spanning 90 m², the library has just 600 outdated books, many of which no longer serve the students' reading needs.
Nguyen Trai secondary school, Vinh Long
Nguyen Trai Secondary School, located in Vinh Long Province, Vietnam. With a 120 m² library serving over 1,400 students, the school currently holds about 3,000 books, but still has numerous empty shelves, reflecting the need for more educational resources.
