NPOs typically have one staff doing the work of many. In this scenario, pro bono volunteers are a great resource. LIN is working to recruit, orient, support and sustain NPO-Volunteer relationships.

In Vietnam 11,000 people lose their life annually to road traffic crashes; over 4,000 of those who die are children. This project gives 1,500 children safe road habits early in life through helmet donation, road safety awareness-building activities, innovative road safety teaching techniques, and engineering safety into their school environment. These interventions allow students to travel to and from school safely, protecting the most vulnerable and teaching them about road safety by example.

Through a new model of Public-Private-Partnership, the goal of this project is to introduce a new way to receive treatment for TB patients in Vietnam. We aim to provide high-quality, TB treatment free of charge to at least 1,000 underserved patients in an urban district in Vietnam. Particularly, we strive to find those patients who are ineligible, unwilling or unable to afford treatment through the public and private systems and who would continue to infect others if left untreated.

This public awareness project will promote child helmet use, with the goal of achieving 80% helmet use rates. Every year 11,000 people die on Vietnam's roads; 4,100 are under the age of 19. Using grass-roots community events and national media, we will spread the news that it is against the law to carry a child 6 years or older on a motorcycle without a helmet, and will combat myths on child helmet use, such as the rumor that wearing a helmet can injury a child's spine.

Our mission is to give health workers in emerging nations the necessary medical skills and clinic operations to treat their own people from their own resources.
