The training beforehand was appreciated and helped me when we were in Vietnam. The local team were exceptional in their assistance and support throughout our time there. The food program is helping the locals of Ho Chi Min and it was a pleasure to be part of this program.

I volunteered at a Soup Kitchen. This project taught me lots about the culture, people and country. Proud people that wanted to pay a little just to not feel like they're begging. This location in Ho Ci Minh, feeds 300 plus people daily. It was so rewarding to me. Volunteers from Ho chi Minh, Hong Kong, Canada, USA, Australia and other parts of the world. Made new friends. It was wonderful. I felt safe and was well fed. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to venture out into a new country.
