After six years serving orphaned girls and young women through the "Orphan Education Project," our support has enabled the continued progress and success of several young women. Hlul and Doar have become teachers, Thu is a certified nurse practitioner, Ngoai is an employed tailor, Von graduated from nursing school, Hanh is a successful business woman in HCMC, Thom and He are graduates of business school, Giang is in her first year at the University of Economics in HCMC, and six other young ladies are attending high school preparing to follow in the footsteps of their predecessors.
Primary School Library Program
Help ensure that impoverished children—many of whom walk several miles to school each day—have learning materials when they arrive. Our primary school library program creates a safe, inviting space for reading and learning, complete with books, DVDs, modern technology, electrical wiring, comfortable furniture and brightly painted walls. We are trying to raise funds for another four libraries in 2012!

These projects are ongoing. Any surplus funds raised will go to health and safety improvements at the schools, and to seed libraries at other primary schools in Kontum Province.
