    We often tell you about how your donations directly affect the children with food, medicine and shelter.  Your donations also sponsor major projects that do much to improve their lives.  One of these projects is providing clean safe drinking water.  VietDreams specializes in providing clean water systems throughout Vietnam. We have contracted with them since 2011 to provide and maintain the systems in all 8 locations.  Each system is sized for the specific location.  It includes a micro filtration system as well as a UV system to purify the water.

    Each system is inspected quarterly by professionals with filters changed and all mechanics inspected.  Clean water and health go hand in hand.  Since 2011 we have seen significant improvement in overall health of the kids.  Your donations make this possible.

    ​

    On behalf of the Board of Directors, the Sisters and the children we thank you for your amazing support in the pandemic years of 2020 and 2021

    ​

    Looking forward to a healthy 2022
