Summary

Support the futures of the youngest and most vulnerable in Vietnam by funding healthy meals and educational scholarships for kids. PeaceTrees Vietnam has removed more than 110,000 bombs from the land to provide safety to children in Quang Tri and has built schools and libraries on the safely cleared land. The 11 libraries, 15 kindergartens, and mine risk education center we've helped construct bring education and literacy to more than 3,500 children each year and need your help to stay open.

Challenge

For poverty-stricken children, food and education are not guaranteed. Our kindergartens, which provide daily healthy meals, are frequently the only reliable food source for many children. Our scholarship program is also often the sole support for many students' primary school edcuation. Our buildings serve as classrooms, community spaces, and safe shelters for abused women and children and sometimes have to be shut down due to structural damages caused during the storm season (May-Dec).

Solution

Funds raised through this campaign will provide meals for kindergartners, scholarships to youths, and essential maintenance to our educational community buildings. Storms have already begun to hit Quang Tri this year and they will only get worse. Without our schools and libraries, children will not have access to food or education. Help us continue to offer safe spaces for women and children.

Long-Term Impact

By providing access to food and literacy, we take a step towards a brighter future for underserved children in Quang Tri Province. Maintaining community buildings and meal programs will ensure that youths for decades to come will receive the early childhood education and primary schooling that will ultimately improve the quality of life in Quang Tri and will help to lift the population out of socioeconomic despair.
