This January, our team had the pleasure of returning to the Ngoc Van Orphanage. By working closely with the dedicated caretakers to understand their current priorities, our volunteers were able to source high-quality, fresh essentials directly from local markets.

To ensure the children have the nutrition and hygiene products they need, this month’s delivery included:

  • Proteins & Fresh Goods: Chicken and an assortment of fresh fruit.
  • Dairy: Fresh milk, flavored milk varieties, and condensed milk.
  • Household Supplies: Essential seasonings, wet wipes, and laundry detergent.

The highlight of the day was a special ice cream party. Our team served up crispy cones topped  with chocolate sauce, and seeing the smiles on the children’s faces was the perfect end to a productive visit.

This mission was made possible entirely through the generosity of our donor Luanne Lemmer. Your contributions directly impact the lives of these children, and we cannot thank you enough for your continued support.

ABOUT THE NGOC VAN ORPHANAGE

Located in the northern part of Khanh Hoa province, the Ngoc Van Orphanage was founded in 2020 after a big storm hit central Vietnam. There were many deaths from the storm, and several orphans were brought to the Ngoc Van Pagoda to be cared for by the monks there. Since then, the orphanage has grown and now cares for about 20 small children.
