In February 2025 we had a wonderful visit to the Anh Dao Orphanage. We had coordinated with the caretakers to bring lots of food and general supplies for the month. We took down a detailed list of items, went to local markets, and loaded up a van ahead of our visit.
When we arrived, the children came out to greet our team and help carry everything inside. We brought bags of rice, packages of noodles, fresh seafood, pork, racks of eggs, fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, cooking oil, sugar, soy sauce, fish sauce, chili sauce, seasonings, mushrooms, dish soap, and laundry detergent.
Our team then cut up slices of fresh fruit for all the children to enjoy. So fun!
This charity trip was sponsored by a donation from Huyen Tran and a donation from the Kinghurst Foundation. Thank you!!!
ABOUT THE ANH DAO ORPHANAGE
Founded in 2004 by the Buddhist nun Thich Nu An Son, a large group of orphans are cared for at this wonderful home in Ninh Hoa, 62 kilometers north of Nha Trang. Visit the orphanage and you’ll find a well-organized and loving environment. The children are happy, and it’s a joy to sit, talk, and play with the little ones. To help provide nourishment to the children, and as a small means of earning funds, Sister An Son tends a small farm behind the orphanage, in front of the girl’s living quarters. The children eat the vegetables that are grown here, and the surplus can be sold to help pay for monthly expenses.
