The Hearing & Beyond Foundation, founded by Mái McCann, provides a quality education for children with hearing impairments in Hoi An. Through her efforts, Mái ensures that children who would otherwise be excluded from formal schooling have access to education and the tools they need to succeed.
Last year, the FUN’d FEST raised over 241 million VND, which helped sponsor the education of three new students at the school. This year’s event aims to raise even more, ensuring that the Hearing & Beyond Foundation can continue to provide education and support to more children in need.
Ms Hanh An, CEO and Founder of HAIS, commented, “Mái’s dedication to supporting vulnerable children in our community is truly inspiring. The work that the Hearing & Beyond team does is essential, and we are proud to continue supporting their mission. The FUN’d FEST brings our community together, and we look forward to another year of raising funds for such a meaningful cause.”
The event will also feature an all-day raffle, organized by the HAIS Parent Community, with a variety of prizes to raise additional funds for the foundation.
“At HAIS, we are committed to giving back to the community. The FUN’d FEST demonstrates the power of creative thinking, empathy, and hard work in addressing social challenges. It’s humbling to see our parents, staff, and students come together to make this event a reality,” said Ms Hanh An.
FUN’d FEST 2025 promises to be an unforgettable day, full of fun, entertainment and community spirit, all while raising essential funds for children in need. The event encourages everyone to join in, whether running or simply supporting the cause, and to be part of making every step count for the Hearing & Beyond Foundation.
