Small Steps for Vietnam

The construction of several houses have begun in Dông Tháp, around 150km from Ho Chi Minh City. One house only costs around $500 to build thanks to the hard work of local volunteers. After discussing with our friends in Vietnam, we have decided to build very simple houses in order to help more families as soon as possible with your donations. Those houses will have water and electricity, and will last at least twenty years.  Thao & Christophe

The new bridge is almost entirely built in less than 5 weeks! A few more things to complete before the official inauguration on March 7th. Thao & Christophe

We will only be onsite in a couple of weeks but the construction work has begun in Tân Thành, in the Càm Mau province, for a new bridge donated by the Zaller family. Without that bridge, people are crossing the river using a little raft attached to a rope. It takes a lot of time and is quite unsafe. This new bridge will bring tremendous improvement in people life.  The new bridge should be completed in the next couple of weeks but this is how it looks like today. Thao & Christophe   

Dear friends, Our Vietnamese New Year Fundraising evening was a great success! Thanks to your donations, we received more than $15,000! As we had previously received around $5,000 from bread selling, we now have $20,000 for our projects in Vietnam. That is terrific! We are planning to arrive in Ho Chi Minh City on February 28 and travelling from there to several regions where some of our projects are already ongoing, Please stay tuned for more news in the coming days!
