Food For People
The program prepares and delivers meals to underprivileged communities. Funds were raised through partnerships with Pass Your Lunch and the Ecopark Trade Fair. Our goal is to provide joyful meals, such as serving hamburgers and Vietnamese Pho to the handicapped at the Quynh Hoa Centre. Another highlight was the 'Happy Cooking Day' in Ba Be, where we collaborated with local people to create cuisine. -
Travel for People
With "Travel for People," we aim to provide opportunities for those who would not otherwise be able to travel. One of our most unforgettable experiences was working with the Hope Centre in Tien Cau, which cares for orphans. The youngsters had a dream of visiting Hanoi and taking a tour of the city that they had heard so much about but had never been able to see. The sheer excitement in their expressions as they visited sights in the capital left an indelible effect on our crews and made us realize how fortunate we were. -
Smiles for People
"Smiles for People" aims to improve the spirits of disadvantaged youngsters, many of whom have never seen television, let alone a movie. This project had several highlights, including our excitement at the children's attention as we constructed the equipment and the utter joy the children had when they saw children's movies on the large screen for the first time in their lives.
