Alongside its school milk initiative, Vietnam also runs a school soy milk program aimed at supporting underprivileged and vulnerable children with nutritious alternatives.
The Vietnam Red Cross, in collaboration with Vinasoy and the Vietnam Soy Milk Study Promotion Fund, officially launched the “School Soy Milk Program” for the 2025–2026 academic year. Held in Quảng Ngãi, the event introduced the campaign’s theme: “Delivering Wholesome Nutrition, Sowing a Green Future.”
The initiative aims to provide free soy milk to underprivileged and vulnerable children across Vietnam, reinforcing the Red Cross’s commitment to child nutrition and educational equity. Since its inception in 2016—and with Vinasoy’s support dating back to 2002—the program has reached millions of students nationwide.
Recent results from October 2024 to May 2025 show impressive impact:
- Over 750,000 cartons of soy milk distributed
- More than 12,000 students across 33 schools benefited
- Noticeable improvements in weight, height, and overall health
For the 2025–2026 school year, the program expands to Đắk Lắk, Lai Châu, Quảng Ngãi, and Quảng Trị, aiming to distribute over 970,000 cartons of Fami Canxi soy milk—valued at VND 4.5 billion —to 16,101 students across 32 primary schools.
