After spending over 20 years living and working in Vietnam—building a business, embracing the culture, and being welcomed by its people—I felt a growing desire to give back in a meaningful way. In early 2023, I asked my team in Ho Chi Minh City to help me identify orphanages that were most in need. That’s how I found Vinh Son 1 and Vinh Son 2, nestled in the remote Central Highlands of Kon Tum.

These orphanages are home to over 180 children and young adults, many of whom were abandoned at birth or left when families could no longer care for them. Some have never even known their parents. Despite their challenges, these children are full of life, potential, and hope.

The orphanages are lovingly managed by Sister Nun – Ms. Vut – Vinh Son 1 and Sister Nun - Ms. Y Klanh –Vinh Son 2 and a small team of volunteers, with support from kind locals like Ms. Phan Thi LAN.

But our mission didn’t stop there.

Over the past year, we’ve expanded our support to six local orphanages – Over 800 Children and multiple ethnic minority villages, including the Ho Moong community.

Together—with the help of our employees, our families, generous clients, and friends—we’ve united around a single, powerful goal: to help children, elders, and the mentally disabled in underserved communities live with dignity, opportunity, and joy.

Our support spans five key areas:

Food Programs – Nutritious meals like soup and pasta, baby formula, and children’s treats, such as: choco pies and lollipops.
Comfort & Clothing – Uniforms, winter jackets, sandals, pillows, matts, blankets, mattresses.
Infrastructure – Solar energy, hot water, roofs, desks, roofing, showers, toilets, and new classrooms.
Skill Development – Sewing programs, swimming lessons, nursing transportation, guitar music lessons.
Fun & Celebration – Christmas festivals, sports gear, basketball nets, badminton and pickleball rackets, soccer balls, bikes, and more…

We’ve already restored plumbing, electricity, and provided essentials like food, bedding, and furniture. The orphanages raise their own animals and grow vegetables, teaching children farming and life skills.

100% of all donations go directly to the children and communities.

Now, I’m inviting you to join us in this mission. Every donation, big or small, goes directly to the children—no middlemen, no administrative fees. Just real, immediate impact.

Here’s what your support can do:

1 month of rice: $365USD

100 chicks & feed: $425USD (Current need: 300 chicks)

5 pigs & feed: $604USD (Current need: 40 pigs)

1 pillow: $3.03USD

1 sleeping mat: $3.64USD

1 can of baby formula: $35USD (They need 2 cans every 2 days)

Dining tables & chairs for children: $606USD

Together, we can bring lasting dignity, comfort, and opportunity to these amazing children. Please consider donating today—and help us spread joy in one of Vietnam’s most overlooked corners.

Respectfully Yours,

Bill Gadd
