We
believe that education helps build the foundation for
Vietnam's future. That's why it's important that children
have adequate schools and the supplies that they need.
This includes computers, chairs and tables.
Vietnam Relief Effort is currently
working on building and expanding schools in impoverished
regions so that kids can have a better chance at learning,
and at life. In rural areas, adequate facilities may not
exist, and it's not uncommon for children to have to walk
miles each day to learn. Your support can make a difference,
as it only takes about $5,000 to build one room of a schoolhouse
in Vietnam.
In the future, we will also work to provide families
with incentives to get children out of the fields and
into the classrooms. That's because in rural areas, both
parents may work in the field, leaving older siblings
- who are pulled out of school - to care for the younger
ones. Families may also put priority on children working
to feed their relatives rather than going to school.
