Who can participate?

Physicians and healthcare personnel, engineers, technical people and handymen, volunteers with humanitarian passion.

Please download an application, send back the completed application with a Resume, and contact the coordinator for an interview.

Knowledge of Vietnamese is not a requisite, and referrals from past participants receive first priority. Early registration is recommended. All-inclusive travel cost is about $1,800 from Los Angeles (airfare, accommodation and food).

What kind of work can non-medical volunteers do?

Because of the diversity of areas of assistance, volunteers are needed to help the various teams in management tasks, patient relations, supplies control & distribution, support work and translation if Vietnamese-speaking. Because of the absence of local resource, our volunteers do patient relations, registration, instruction and transport, which offer opportunities for wonderful interactions with the children and their families.
