Viriya Insurance Supports Education Through Seventh Annual Scholarship Program
Viriya Insurance has awarded 322 scholarships and donated educational and sports equipment to students in Bangkok and surrounding areas.
According to a report by Thai Post, Viriya Insurance Public Company Limited has continued its corporate social responsibility efforts through the seventh year of its 'Happiness in Giving... For Students to Learn' project. Ekasit Sakthanakorn, Assistant Managing Director, represented the company in distributing 322 scholarships to students in Bangkok and its vicinity.
In addition to the financial grants, the initiative provided various learning materials and sports equipment to schools, with a total contribution valued at 435,724 Thai Baht. The program is specifically designed to assist students who demonstrate strong academic performance but face financial hardships, aiming to bridge the educational opportunity gap in the metropolitan region.
For residents and expatriates, this initiative highlights the ongoing commitment of major Thai private sector entities to local community development and youth welfare. While the immediate impact is focused on the recipients of these scholarships, such programs often reflect broader corporate trends in Thailand regarding social investment. At this time, there are no further details regarding the specific schools selected for this year's cycle or the criteria for future scholarship applications. Those interested in the company's ongoing community projects may monitor official announcements from Viriya Insurance for potential future opportunities or updates on the program's reach.
