Thien Phuc Charity Centre
The Thien Phuc Charity Center is an NGO which was established in 2010 with the main objective to provide food and rehabilitation to orphaned children, people with disabilities, people affected by Dioxin poisoning, helpless elderly people. The Charity Center also sponsors orphans outside of the community.
The Thien Phuc Charity Center is entirely run by volunteers, is self-governing and financed through donations.
The children from the Thien Phuc Charity Center go to local schools in the area. The volunteers work hard to create a real future for these kids. The children receive support to develop their physical strength, their intellectual abilities and their personality with the goal to find a job and become self-sufficient, which provides them with a chance to fully integrate into the community as they get older.
The Center has recently built a family area of 4000 m2 that comprises a kitchen, hall, dining rooms, and garden with a pond.
The Center is currently looking after 35 orphaned children and disabled people, and sponsors another 47 orphaned children outside the community.
The Bac Giang Province has currently 28,000 orphans and disabled people who need help. Many other people with disabilities, and especially helpless elderly are desperate to join the centre as well.
In order to create a sustainable structure across the province any donation will help.
