Story

Hey Guys , 

Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my Justgiving page . I want to take this opportunity to let you know a little bit more about what the money you give out of the goodness of your heart will be going towards :

               Myself and a group of amazing students from Manchester University have been given the opportunity to spend 6 weeks in Vietnam helping to teach English in a variety of places. Mostly our teaching will be done in schools and orphanages, not only will we be teaching the children English but we will also be getting to know them , their way of life and their struggles. Participating in this programme will be highly rewarding not just for ourselves but also for the children as it will give them hope and let them know that they are not forgotten. My fellow volunteers and I will be working with Hue Help as part of Manchester RAG. 

             Hue Help was founded in cooperation between American and British students and Vietnamese NGO professionals, who in 2006 observed that a small amount of money could go a long way in addressing the many unmet health, education and safety needs of the city's poor children, in particular at its nine major orphanages.                                                                                                                                Hue Helps mission statement is as follows, we will provide a range of continuously improving programs and projects to benefit disadvantaged people in central Vietnam, with a particular focus on the health and education of children. Hue Help works in central Vietnam to improve the health, education and future prospects of disadvantaged children. Working through local partners we provide mobile health care, support a home for children, run swimming training for children in flood zones and operate an international volunteer programme. We believe that local people should be at the heart of our programmes, promoting sustainability and ensuring that the people we work with are able to maintain their customs, culture and traditions.

I will be doing a number of fundraising activities , cake sales , cleaning , cooking , events . You name it I am willing to do it so please please dig deep and donate to this worthy cause.
