Vietnam International Volunteer Placement Service(VIVP)

Hello all, please see below a bit about the project I have volunteered to go on, my interests have always been to support vulnerable children and an opportunity has arised. I have a great inner drive and passion to go. I truly appreciate any amount you can sponsor. The program involves me working at an Orphanage in Ba Vi located approximately 50kms north of Hanoi. The center not only caters for orphaned/disabled children but also for the homeless of Hanoi and those that are experiencing real difficulties in their lives. The centre also caters for some elderly residents who have no family or home to go to. There are approximately 320 people at the centre and a few of the children attend the local school. The children have severe physical and intellectual disabilities but greet each day with a smile. There is also a nursery for babies without disabilities. My main role will be a mentor and extra set of hands for the staff. I will be able to offer my skills organising activities like Arts and Crafts, Team building, exercise sessions, teaching basic English and much more. I value your support greatly and thank you for any donation you give.
