29 May 2013
The event, featuring various activities, folk games, stage games, bouncing castle, pumpkin slide, ball house, spring house, etc, is expected to welcome more than 2,000 kids and parents, including residents of The Vista, residents of Somerset Vista, neighbors in An Phu Ward, and the public. The festival is totally free for entrance ticket, parking ticket and games.
In addition, for this special day, as usual, CapitaLand doesn’t forget underprivileged children. Around 100 street children of Holy Rosary Center will be invited to enjoy the festival and to receive gifts with the total value of 50 million VND.
Mr Yip Hoong Mun, Deputy CEO of CapitaLand Vietnam, said: “Children are our future. We would like to take care of them, not only for The Vista residents’ kids but also for underprivileged children. Through our regular corporate social responsibility activities, we help them build a better future by supporting them in their education, shelter and healthcare needs. CapitaLand is committed to give back to the local communities as we grow our business in Vietnam. I hope that the festival is our special gift for these children and their families to have a warm and joyful Children Day.”
Sister Nguyen Thi Thao, the main trainer of Holy Rosary Center shared “We are so happy to bring our underprivileged children to The Vista, the beautiful and green project of CapitaLand, to enjoy the Children Day festival. They are poor children who must work on the street to have something to eat. They need not only food but also love from society. They are waiting impatiently for this event. The Children Day festival this year is a beautiful souvenir for all of us. This is a motivation for our street children to continue with their hard life”.
