Orphanage and Care Home | Volunteers are needed to help by giving their time, energy and attention to poor or orphaned children and disadvantaged adults in the beautiful surroundings of rural Vietnam |
Location of our Projects
The orphanage and care home is located around 70 km outside of Hanoi in Vietnam in Tay Dang which is in the Ba Vi district. It is in a beautiful rural location surrounded by paddy fields and corn fields and it a great opportunity to experience real Vietnamese culture.

Read what some of our volunteers say...
"I chose to be involved in this project as I wanted to get to know a different culture 'from the inside' and I really feel I've achieved this. The volunteers have made all of us very welcome and have gone out of their way to take us to see the real Vietnam. As for working with the children at the different schools, this has been an incredible experience. Being with children, many of whom don't have much in terms of material possessions, but who more than make up for that in smiles and warmth, has been a real pleasure. They've really allowed us into their worlds and it has been a joy to get to know them and see them learn and develop, even during a short period. I would fully recommend signing up for a project such as this - you will get so much more than you could ever imagine out of it!"
