Exciting News!
I have been looking for a way to give back to Vietnam for a few years now. I have been following a Canadian charity called the Vietnamese Education Society for some time now and recently decided to make a major donation to one of their school building projects! The charity is led by a professor who has been running the organization in her spare time for the past ten years. She also has an adopted daughter from Vietnam. She typically builds one school per year, generally a kindergarten or primary school in a rural area where the need is greatest. All donated funds go to the project and she is very good about posting photos to show that the schools actually get built. She is also soliciting funds for scholarships for girls living in the border regions who are at risk of trafficking. If you are looking for a worthwhile cause to support, I encourage you to check out the Vietnamese Education Society! Here is another link to a description of the kindergarten I'm helping to build and a description of the scholarship program. Also, check out this video.
