Founded in 2014, Education for Ha Giang Highland Community (E4HC) is a social enterprise located in Hagiang, North Vietnam. Our mission is to enrich ethic minorities by connecting volunteers and sponsors to the disadvantaged people of Ha Giang. We firmly believe that while an individual can make a difference, collective action can drive tremendous changes.
As a social enterprise, we pledge to draw 51% of the annual profits to reinvest in the community.
