This evening is hosted by Canadian families that have adopted children from Vietnam, and our many Vietnamese and other community friends. It is in support of our charity, the Vietnam Education Society, a registered Canadian non-profit that raises funds to build elementary schools and early childhood education centres in rural Vietnam. This is a way for many of us to give back for the gift of our children and to make a difference to children in Vietnam. Other than a few basic costs, 100% of the funds raised go towards the children and schools. In Vietnam, hundreds of thousands of children have limited access to basic education. In rural areas, schools are often in poor condition and are so crowded that students attend in two half-day shifts and sometimes only for a few years till they are often forced to leave to work.
Please help us to help young Vietnamese children build a better future.
