Memories of Viet Nam


As I watch the snow begin to melt in Minneapolis, I think about Viet Nam and the Anh Linh Free School. Michael Hsun and 20 students from the Viet Nam Service Club from the Singapore American School are arriving today in HCM. They bring packpacks, books, lesson plans, games, and hours of engagement for the children. The Viet Nam Service Club has been meeting twice a week to organize all of this.

Meanwhile, back at home, we have been hard at work showing sponsors at Anh Linh photos of their sponsored kids. Each of more than 100 sponsors commits to financially supporting these children. The SAS group and our volunteers in Minnesota help get the photos, stories and updates so that sponsors can see the progress that the children are making.

Bridges2Learning.org has information about how you can be a sponsor of a child, or, how you can donate to support this amazing work. We are helping more than 401 students move up and out of poverty. We are a bridge to learning.
