Closing ceremony and appreciation for sponsors and volunteers of the “Scarlet sails” project 2025

In her speech at the ceremony, Ms. Tran Hong Diep, Director of VSF, expressed her sincere thanks to BAC A BANK, the sponsor of the project.

“Beyond financial support, from the very first days of conceptualization to the completion and expansion of each activity, the project has continuously received wholehearted and professional companionship from BAC A BANK, especially from the Human Resources Division and the Training Center. This close coordination and support have played an essential role in helping the ‘Scarlet sails’ ship reach its safe harbor and complete its meaningful journey,” Ms. Tran Hong Diep shared.

The program also dedicated special time to honor eight outstanding volunteers - the young “sailors” who contributed their energy and enthusiasm throughout the project’s implementation.

The volunteers watched a short film capturing memorable moments of the project: from the very first training sessions for volunteers to the workshops on comprehensive sexuality education and child protection for students in Hanoi and Phu Tho, as well as the “Connection and Sharing” talk show for parents and students. This was a chance for them to relive their memories, reflect on their growth, and recognize their meaningful contributions.

 The volunteers also had an opportunity to share their personal “voyages” through their own reflections and drawings, expressing the positive changes they experienced after joining the project.

In her remarks, Ms. Tran Huong Giang, Director of the Human Resources Division at BAC A BANK, highly appreciated the enthusiasm, dynamism, and dedication of the eight volunteers, hoping that the experiences and skills they gained through the project would serve as a strong foundation for their continued involvement in community initiatives in the future.

Over more than five months of implementation, the team of volunteers aged 15 to 18 not only supported logistics but also participated in content design, activity planning, and directly facilitated games and group discussions during training sessions. Thanks to their closeness and empathy, the volunteers became trusted companions for participating students, helping to create a friendly and safe learning environment where children felt confident to share their feelings, ask questions, and learn how to protect themselves.

At the end of the program, the Organizing Committee presented Certificates of Outstanding Volunteer and souvenirs to all eight volunteers in recognition of their responsibility, creativity, and meaningful contributions to the project.
