Dear VMware friends: In the wake of the devastating COVID-19 pandemic, many innocent children have lost their parents, their lives forever altered, and they now bear scars that no child should ever have to endure. There are so many heartbreaking stories that I personally witnessed in Vietnam: - A 5-year-old boy lost both of his parents while in the isolation camp. - A middle-school student lost his only mother. His relative told me that at night he still quietly talks to the image of his late mother ...and many, many more stories that I can not even write down without holding back the tears. We can never understand the pain they carry. I sometimes look at their pictures just to remind myself how blessed and fortunate we are. We have identified a few orphanages or charities that offer accommodation and educational opportunities for these orphans. For example, this initiative here: https://www.facebook.com/truonghyvonghopeschool We can do more to help. Your generous contributions can make a profound difference in the lives of these orphans. Your donations will provide them with the means to survive, access to education, and most importantly, hope. From the bottom of my heart - thank you for being the beacon of hope these children so desperately need! Please state in your donation "Support for Orphans". I will personally ensure that our contribution is received by the school. All donations will be sent to VietBay Inc., a 501©(3) non-profit organization formed by a group of Vietnamese professionals in the San Francisco Bay Area to receive and distribute fund to charity in Vietnam. All US donations are tax deductible.

Khule charity foundation need a school bus to provide safe and reliable transportation to Ugandan kids attending school. In order for the bus to operate, transportation cost must be met to cover fuel, labor and maintenance.

The potential long term impact of your support would be powerful because education is the key to help Ugandan community build a better and more sustainable way of life.

Seventy-one million people lack access to clean water. That’s 1 in 10 people on the planet. Women and girls spend an estimated 200 million hours carrying water every day. The average woman in rural Africa walks 6 kilometers (about 3.7 miles) daily to haul 40 pounds of water. Providing clean water, sanitation, and hygiene is a crucial aspect of ensuring the well-being and development of communities worldwide. Access to clean water is a fundamental human right, yet millions still lack access to safe drinking water sources. You can help families in need get access to clean water as a supporter of World Vision. We aim to establish lasting access to clean water for 10 million people. The future is even more ambitious — but achievable with your help
