Oxford Omnia Founder Elena Bernini, and MB English Director Van Luong Mura, were both born in the District of Kinh Mon in Northern Vietnam. They were adopted at a young age by two Italian families. Van Luong and Elena grew up with a dream to return to their village and give back to their community.
Giving back for them means using their knowledge and means to inspire and mentor children towards the achievement of their full academic and leadership potential, which will have a positive spillover effect on their community and broader region.
MB Education Project was founded in honor of Matteo Bertero, a young and brilliant student who died at a very young age in 2014 and who was one of Elena’s best friends.
