Clean Water to Ha Vinh commune

Friday, February 8th, 2019

water

80% of diseases in Vietnam are caused by polluted water resource which causes cholera, typhoid, dysentery, malaria… Disease check-ups and treatments cost about $20 million USD, so prevention is a no-brainer.

Thanks to Mrs. Mai Dolch’s support, 1592 people from 375 households in Ha Vinh commune, Ha Trung district, Thanh Hoa province start getting clean water flowing to their houses for the very first time.

For folks like Tuan who had to borrow 50,000 VND (~$2000 USD) for disease treatments, this VNHelp clean water project shields him and 1591 others from financial disaster and secures a healthy future for their loved ones.

Chau Phong Primary School

Tuesday, November 13th, 2018

On November 13, 2018, VNHelp held the inauguration ceremony of A Chau Phong Primary School, Chau Phong Commune, Tan Chau Town, An Giang Province with 4 classrooms, and a teacher room. Attending the ceremony were Mr. & Mrs. Truoc Do & Phuong Lan from California – the main sponsors for the project, VNHelp representatives, and local guests. Having learned that Tan Chau was her mother’s hometown, Phuong Lan was very moved by the ceremony. In her speech, she emphasized that education is very important as knowledge stayed with us forever while all material possessions could leave us at any time.  She expressed her wish to continue helping disadvantaged children of her motherland to obtain better education.

The new school is ready for use as all classrooms are furnished with furniture, and equipment.  The facility also includes 4 newly built restrooms.
