Ho Chi Minh City Volunteer Tour

ABOUT OUR "BRINGING LIGHT TO CHILDREN" PROJECT:

Each year, thousands of Vietnamese children are being abandoned on the streets, either because they were born out of wedlock, or simply because their parents no longer have the financial means to take care of them. If found, these children are brought to orphanages around the city, usually funded by private organisations and NGOs. But the number of children who need help continue to grow. Currently, the number of caretakers to children in orphanages is about 1 : 100. Hence, each child receives very little attention and care. The conditions of which they live in are also less than satisfactory. Thankfully for them, there are 80,000 people like you, as well as our corporate volunteers.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS:

• Half day orientation program
• With the support of a trained facilitator, you may opt for one of the following placements:
