In June 2025, our team had a wonderful and productive visit to the Suoi Cat Charity Home. Prior to our arrival, we connected with the caretakers to get a comprehensive list of their most pressing needs for the month. With this information, we purchased all the requested items from local markets, loaded them into a van, and drove out to the home.

Upon our arrival, we unloaded and arranged the supplies in the music room, and the children came out to greet us with enthusiasm. This month’s delivery included essential provisions such as milk, various types of noodles (both packaged and instant), cooking oil, fruit syrup, and candies. We also brought personal care items like body wash, shampoo, and general toiletries. To further support the home, we provided practical items such as umbrellas, headphones, and a new portable stove.

As a special surprise, we also handed out small presents to all the children, which brought many smiles and much joy to their faces.

This heartwarming visit and all the donated supplies were made possible by the incredibly generous contributions from Steven Burger. We extend our sincere gratitude for his kindness and support!

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.
