Donations cannot currently be made to this page
Hue Help works in central Vietnam to improve the health, education and future prospects of disadvantaged children. Working through local partners we support a children's shelter and each year we run a drowning prevention programme to reduce the devastatingly high rate of child drownings in Vietnam.

Story

<p style="text-align: left;"> <p class="MsoNormal">Thanks for visiting my JustGiving page!</p> <p class="MsoNormal">This summer I&rsquo;m volunteering with the charity <em>Hue Help</em>, who work to help disadvantaged children in the city of Hue, in Vietnam. This volunteering scheme involves going to Vietnam for six weeks, teaching English and organising other activities for children in orphanages, local schools and other projects. Hue is thought of as the educational centre of Vietnam but despite this there are still a lot of children living in poverty, homelessness or with no education and no prospects. By participating in this volunteering scheme we are hoping to provide some support for these children in the on-going programmes that the charity runs to help improve their future prospects and lives.</p> <p class="MsoNormal">In order to do this I need to raise &pound;1800 for the charity which I am hoping to raise through a series of events, including the 10km Bupa Great Manchester Run that I am entered in in May, so please give generously!</p> <p class="MsoNormal">Many thanks, Jo.&nbsp;</p> </p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
