In March 2025 we made our monthly visit to the Suoi Cat Charity Home with food and general supplies. After speaking with the caretakers about their needs, we bought everything at local markets, loaded up a van, and drove out to the home.
This month we brought a new blender, boxes of ramen, soy sauce, milk, French fries, fish balls, pork, canned fish, packages of noodles, oyster sauce, chips, cleaning supplies, shampoo, deodorant, aprons, insect spray, office supplies, mats, cleaning supplies, wipes, and hand wash.
Next, the children came into the main dining hall and our team prepared iced sugar cane drinks for everyone.
This visit was made possible through the kind donations from Steven Burger, Pham Van Thuy Nguyen, and Bichlien Nguyen. Thank you!!!
ABOUT THE SUOI CAT CHARITY HOME
Suoi Cat is a poor community to the west of Nha Trang, composed of rural farming hamlets that live in poverty. The Suoi Cat Charity Home is a loving place that houses and cares for many of the community’s children whose families struggle to support and provide for them. The home is composed of adolescent and teenage girls who stay at the home year-round, sleep in dormitories, and have meals together in a communal dining hall. The nuns and caretakers who run the home come from the nearby Suoi Dau Catholic Church and provide a nurturing environment for all. They ensure the children attend local public schools and provide after school tutoring lessons. The same caretakers previously supported young boys in the community who stayed at the Suoi Dau Charity Home. Some of the same boys receive tutoring at Suoi Cat during the day, then return home to their families in the evening.
