Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, KOTO has helped almost 1,000 disadvantaged youth realize their potential. KOTO alumni are found in every leading hotel and restaurant across Vietnam. Many alumni are running their own businesses and are working internationally including in Australia, Germany, New Zealand and Singapore. With their Box Hill Institute qualifications, a number have been awarded scholarships to continue their studies in Australia. Most have used this opportunity to improve their own lives and often that of their family and the wider community.
