Chubb Life and Chubb Charitable Foundation – International announce opening of School in Quang Binh

With six spacious classrooms, the two-story school provides learning facilities for more than 200 local students. Like the six school projects previously supported by Chubb Life through the Central Region Natural Disaster Prevention and Support Fund, Duy Ninh Kindergarten is designed to withstand flooding. During monsoon season, the campus will provide safe shelter for approximately 300 people. In addition, the project includes self-contained toilets that meet national standards for kindergartens and preschools.

Mr. Lam Hai Tuan, Chairman and Country President of Chubb Life in Vietnam, said, “Education is the gateway to an improved future and provides momentum to create more positive changes to the community. Building high-quality schools with better facilities for learning and teaching is a special way that Chubb Life chooses to offer long-term, sustainable value for local communities. In the coming years, we hope to have more opportunities to implement other meaningful projects that fulfill our commitment to contribute to the communities in which we live and work”.
