Personal information

  • Nguyen Huu Thien (2006)
  • Tan Quoi High School, Binh Tan District, Vinh Long Province.
  • Major in Automotive Engineering Technology program, Vinh Long University of Technology Education.

Family situation

Huu Thien lost his mother at the tender age of five and was raised by his father. However, just as he graduated from high school and prepared to take the university entrance exam, an important milestone for any student, life dealt him another cruel blow. His father tragically passed away in a work-related accident, leaving him in a state of immense difficulty. Currently, Huu Thien lives with his older brother and sister-in-law in their grandmother’s house. His grandmother, now elderly and bedridden due to illness, relies on Thien and his brother for constant care. Understanding the financial strain on his brother’s young family, which has a newborn to care for, Thien takes on part-time jobs every Sunday to support himself. Despite his hardships, he holds onto his dream of pursuing a university education while working part-time to fund his studies and secure a brighter future.

In 2024, with the invaluable encouragement of the “Change The Future” scholarship just before his university entrance exam, Nguyen Huu Thien achieved remarkable success by being accepted into the Automotive Engineering Technology program at Vinh Long University of Technology Education. This marks a significant turning point, paving the way for a promising future for a determined and resilient young man.
