Second summer charity trip to schools in need in Ben Tre

On August 14, 2016, the volunteers have help us hand out uniforms and books to 47 young and poor students at An Định Elementary School in Mo Cay Village, Ben Tre province.

They also visited the An Định Highschool in the same area to hand out uniforms and school materials to 94 students in severe economic hardship.

Summer 2016 charity events for families in need and the "kitchen" back then...

Back to continue supporting Bửu Nghiêm, Nha Mân, Đồng Tháp temple, our group of volunteers have helped give 70 gifts to the poor families, each contains 10 kg of rice, 1 box of instant noodles , 2 bottles of soy sauce and 200,000 VND. We also sent to the "kitchen" 15.000.000 VND for poor students and to orphans 10,000,000 VND. The thatched roof was worn out....they still can not afford to replace it with tile/metal roof. 
The group will continue to travel to Ben Tre in mid August to help out families in need....

Charity events bring warmer Tet to orphans...

Tu An temple - Ba Ria, 70km from Saigon is a village temple. They mostly receive vegetables donations to feed the children. Some children were left at the door of the temple on the 28th before the New year. The 3 kids in the picture were just going through the heart surgery. The ones carried by Sister Minh Hai are twins. From Sister, the temple currently shelters and cares about 140 orphans. More practically, we gave 5,000,000VND to the temple to support the orphans and elderly. To them, no donation is too small and "as you give so shall you receive"....
