Blue Dragon Children's Foundation (Vietnam)

Beyond rescue and care, Blue Dragon collaborates with impoverished and at-risk communities to strengthen their resilience against trafficking and exploitation. By combining direct intervention with long-term prevention programs, we aim to reduce risks, protect vulnerable groups and create safer environments for children and families. Additionally, we draw on our experiences to advocate for systemic change, working toward improved policies and laws that protect children and youth across Vietnam. In 2024, we achieved significant milestones, expanding our operations to three new locations: Ho Chi Minh City, Nghe An province in central Vietnam, and Bac Lieu province in the Mekong Delta. With the continued support of our global community, we are reaching more children and families in need than ever, helping them overcome crises and build brighter futures.
