After more than two weeks of mobilizing for the “Old Computers – New Knowledge” project, the Be Better Foundation, along with generous supporters, has successfully achieved the goal of providing 15 old computers for 15 exceptionally disadvantaged students.
Above all, the Be Better Foundation and the students sincerely thank all the generous donors for their contributions and support. We invite you to take a look back at this project.
- Gratitude to Special Sponsors
In the early days of the campaign, there were moments when the goal seemed distant and difficult to achieve. The students accompanied the Foundation in writing letters requesting sponsorship, and their heartfelt messages motivated us to continue pursuing our goal.
However, some special friends, sensing the sincerity of the students, generously funded the remaining amount needed—over 60 million VND. Thanks to this support, the project was completed ahead of schedule.
This assistance is not only significant in material terms but also truly meaningful in spirit. This valuable help not only provides students with computers for their studies but also builds trust in the Be Better Foundation and the students, reinforcing our commitment to changing the future ahead.
To express our gratitude to the generous sponsors, it is truly hard to convey everything in words. The beautiful gestures of the sponsors and their contributions will always be remembered by Be Better and the students!
From the bottom of our hearts, the Be Better Foundation would like to present a report on the project as well as a summary of the contributions from our generous supporters.

- Summary of Funds Received and Utilized by Be Better Foundation
After two weeks of fundraising for the project, Be Better received both cash and in-kind donations:
– Cash: 76,868,371 VND
– In-kind: 1 old computer
With the funds received, Be Better purchased 14 old computers, details as follows:
– Type: Dell Latitude 3590
– Configuration: Core I3 7130U (2.7 GH), RAM: 8G DDR4 (2133), SSD: 128 GB, Display: 15.6 inches
– Unit Price: 4,500,000 VND/computer (excluding tax)
– Total value for 14 computers including 10% VAT is 69,300,000 VND.
The Foundation checked the quality of each computer and reinstalled all software so that when the students received the computers, they could use them effectively. This also facilitates future maintenance and care of the machines.
After completing all expenses, the project still has a surplus of 7,568,371 VND. Be Better requests to transfer this surplus amount to the “Change the Future” scholarship project to support students for the upcoming semester.
- Distributing Old Computers to 10 Students
Initially, Be Better called for 15 old computers for 15 students who truly needed them. However, in this distribution, we only gave 10 computers to 10 students.
The reason for this change is that during the fundraising process, some students managed to borrow computers from acquaintances or friends to meet the needs of the first semester exams. Some students, who lived together or studied together, decided to share one computer and pass the opportunity to another student.
The remaining 5 computers will be kept for future scholarship recipients of the “Change the Future” program.
Once again, the Be Better Foundation sincerely thanks the generous sponsors for helping the students and for trusting and accompanying Be Better.
This significant support cannot be repaid. However, with all we can, we will strive to guide the students of the “Change the Future” scholarship to ensure they are on the right path, supporting and accompanying them in building a better future. We hope that on the challenging journey ahead, generous sponsors and kind-hearted friends will continue to watch over, accompany, and support the more than 60 students and scholars of the “Change the Future” scholarship.
The Be Better Foundation and all the students express their heartfelt gratitude!
