PeaceTrees Vietnam



PeaceTrees Vietnam

From the website:

Living on war-torn land that has been restored to safety and productivity empowers the most vulnerable people of rural Vietnam to emerge from poverty and take control of their health, happiness and future. We educate children and adults about how to recognize and avoid unexploded devices while also helping wounded victims find medical care, housing and other resources. Families whose loved ones have been killed or injured by land mine accidents receive direct financial assistance and scholarships to help them rebuild their lives.

There is no shortage of projects that are worthy and necessary due to U.S. 'interests' around the world. This looks like a fantastic group, and reminds me that there are still injuries and death left over from our war in Vietnam.

I will never be able to wrap my mind around war. Thank you for introducing us to this project.
