In June 2025, we had the pleasure of arranging a direct food delivery to the Martino Charity Home. After contacting the caretakers for their specific needs, we sourced a wide variety of groceries from local markets and had them delivered right to the home. This month’s delivery included an assortment of meats, boxes of noodles, eggs, seasonings, snacks, milk, cooking oil, instant noodle soup, and fresh fruit.
We were so happy to receive many adorable pictures of the children throughout the month, filled with their joyful smiles!
This important delivery was made possible by the generous donations from Steven Burger. Thank you so much for your kindness!
ABOUT THE MARTINO CHARITY HOME
This loving home is located in rural Quang Tri province, 90 kilometers northwest of Hue. The area is home to the Bru-Van Kieu ethnic group, who have a unique language and culture, and extend from central Vietnam into Laos and Thailand. There is much poverty in this region, which puts undue pressure on families. The Martino Charity Home was founded to house and care for young children in the area whose families struggle to support and provide for them. The home is adjacent the Phuoc Tuyen Catholic Church and overseen by Father Nguyen Thi Thu Huong. About 33 children aged 6 to 11 live at the home year round. The nuns and caretakers provide housing, meals, and a loving environment for the children to grow and thrive. The children attend local elementary schools and receive extra tutoring at the home.
