We had a wonderful visit with the children at the Loc Tho Charity School in September 2025. As part of our regular monthly support, our team purchased a variety of essential food and supplies at local markets. We then drove out to the school to deliver the provisions. This month’s donation included staples like rice, ramen, cooking oil, sugar, and vegan fish sauce, as well as fresh vegetables, vegan meat patties, milk, mushrooms, packages of noodles, hand soap, seasonings, and cleaning products,
After we stacked the provisions in the courtyard, the children took a break from their studies to come out and greet us. To make the visit a bit extra fun, our team handed out popsicles as a surprise treat for all the little ones!
This month’s delivery of food and provisions was made possible through donations from Dan, Van, and Devin Haynes and an anonymous donor. Thank you!!!
ABOUT THE LOC THO CHARITY SCHOOL
The Loc Tho Charity School, established in 1991 by Sister Thich Nu Dieu Y, has a long-standing history of providing free education to underprivileged children. Sister Dieu Y dedicated her life to this cause, and after her passing in 2014, the compassionate nuns of the Loc Tho Pagoda have continued her incredible work.
This primary school offers a vital service to the community, providing a free education for children whose families cannot afford public schooling. The school covers all expenses, including textbooks, uniforms, shoes, school supplies, and teachers’ fees, ensuring every child has the opportunity to learn. Beyond academics, Loc Tho Charity School also provides breakfast and lunch for its students and offers a nurturing home for several orphans and foster children.
