Vietnam Friendship Village gives more care for AO/dioxin victims
PANO - The Vietnam Friendship Village under the Vietnam Veterans’ Association Central Committee is a non-profit organization, which carries out social activities for humanitarian and friendly purposes.
Over the past time, the village has received a lot of support from the State of Vietnam, the Vietnam Fatherland Front, and other social, economic, non-governmental organizations, individuals, including war veterans at home and abroad. It has effectively provided rehabilitation and care for war veterans who were directly exposed to Agent Orange (AO)/dioxin and their affected children.
At the village, the aforementioned children have also received special education, career guidance, vocational training and other skills to integrate into society.
It can be said that the Vietnam Friendship Village is the place to connect benefactors to help ease pains of AO/dioxin victims.
Below are photos taken at the village in recent years.
