Chevron and Partners Award Scholarships to Fishermen's Children
Chevron Thailand and its joint venture partners have awarded 400,000 baht in scholarships to support the higher education of fishermen's children.
According to a report by Thai Post, Chevron Thailand and its joint venture partners have launched the 2026 'Promoting Educational Opportunities for Fishermen's Children' project. In collaboration with the National Fisheries Association of Thailand, the initiative awarded eight scholarships totaling 400,000 baht to students pursuing undergraduate degrees at the Faculty of Fisheries, Kasetsart University.
This initiative aims to provide financial support to the families of local fishermen, helping to alleviate educational costs for the next generation. For residents and those interested in local community development, this program highlights ongoing corporate social responsibility efforts within Thailand's maritime and agricultural sectors. By partnering with a prestigious institution like Kasetsart University, the project ensures that recipients receive academic support in fields relevant to the fishing industry.
While the scholarships have been distributed for the 2026 academic year, details regarding the long-term continuation of this specific partnership or the criteria for future application cycles have not been publicly detailed. Those interested in similar educational support programs or community outreach initiatives in Thailand may wish to monitor future announcements from the National Fisheries Association of Thailand or the participating corporate entities for potential upcoming opportunities.
