Currently the centre houses seventy students are hold three classes- two in the morning and one in the afternoon. As a result, the students are not receiving a full curriculum and the staff is over worked.

Why we need volunteer?

Local and international volunteers are needed provide orphaned and street children with a basic education. This will be done through educational games and activities created by the volunteer. Volunteers are desperately needed to act as teachers assistants and organize lectures for the students.

This project needs local and international volunteers to work cooperatively to create educational programs which include both Vietnamese and English subjects.

The center is the only hope that they have for a better life.
