As part of its community investment initiative, the company donated 49 desktop computers and desks, with a total investment of VND700 million ($30,000). Employees from Frasers Property Vietnam also volunteered to renovate the computer lab, creating a conducive learning environment to improve students' access to information technology and foster digital literacy among the school’s nearly 2,500 students.

Edwin Tan, deputy CEO of Frasers Property Vietnam and managing director for Industrial & Logistics in Southeast Asia, shared at the event, “Frasers Property strives to contribute positively to the community wherever we operate.”

The initiative aligns with the Singapore-headquartered Frasers Property Group’s purpose: “Inspiring experiences, Creating places for good.” In Vietnam, Frasers Property’s community investment focuses on three core areas: Environment, Health and Wellbeing, and Education.

Through its education-focused initiatives, Frasers Property Vietnam aims to promote creativity and innovative solutions while nurturing talent to enhance societal resilience for the future.

Nguyen Thanh Triet, deputy manager of the Education and Training Department of Thu Dau Mot city, praised Frasers Property’s tangible contributions to education in the province. “This initiative exemplifies how businesses can make a meaningful difference in the lives of young people and contribute to overall social development. It reflects the company’s high sense of responsibility and serves as a great motivation for the younger generation, helping to create a brighter future,” said Triet.

Pham Thi Bich Thuy, principal of Phu My Secondary School, expressed gratitude for the support. “We are deeply touched by Frasers Property’s generosity. In today’s digital age, equipping our students with computers is essential. These devices will help our students develop critical digital skills, foster independent thinking and creativity, and ultimately enhance the quality of education at our school,” she said.

Creating a positive social impact

Frasers Property Vietnam continues to deepen its efforts in creating social value through expanding partnerships with tenants, partners, employees, and communities. The company mobilises employee volunteers for various causes, while encouraging partners and members of the public to join in initiatives to benefit the community.

In collaboration with longstanding partners such as the Vietnam Red Cross Society and the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee, Frasers Property has supported blood donation drives and provided financial assistance to families in need.

The company has also demonstrated its commitment to environmental sustainability through initiatives such as planting 1,100 trees at Cuc Phuong National Park, promoting greater awareness of sustainability. Additionally, Frasers Property has partnered with the NGO Saigon Children to invest in community education by providing laptops to disadvantaged students.

Frasers Property commemorates Frasers Community Month annually, rallying employees to contribute time and resources to support causes and beneficiaries across various communities.

Frasers Property Vietnam has been consecutively recognised as one of the top 40 sustainable businesses for the community by Saigon Times Magazine in both 2023 and 2024. This accolade underscores the company’s commitment to sustainability and its contributions to the environment, health, and education.
