our vision
We envision a world where disability is not a limitation—a compassionate community where orphans with disabilities have equal access to quality education, assistive technology, and meaningful employment opportunities.
Our Mission
Our mission is to empower blind and visually impaired students in Vietnam by providing access to assistive technology that fosters independence, confidence, and brighter futures.
Though vast in number, the blind and visually impaired in Vietnam remain a largely forgotten group. Educational opportunities for them are scarce and far behind in terms of technology. Their access to the workforce is further hindered by social stigma and a lack of understanding of their abilities. As a result, many are left marginalized—dependent on others, hidden from society, or forced into begging or exploitation. The majority grow up without a sense of self-worth or hope for a better future.
Our Solution
Our computer labs for the blind and visually impaired provide specialized, locally relevant training focused on:
- Building self-reliance and independence
- Creating social connections
- Promoting academic growth through information access
- Developing job-ready digital and technical skills
To further support their development, we also provide dedicated teachers for English as a Second Language (ESL)and computer skills training, ensuring students can thrive in both local and global contexts.
Through this program, students gain the tools to compete with their sighted peers and enter a job market that previously excluded them—unlocking their intellectual and technical potential.
Long-Term Impact
The long-term impact of this initiative includes:
- Increased self-esteem and personal empowerment
- Greater independence and self-sufficiency
- Access to meaningful employment opportunities
- Positive shifts in family dynamics, where individuals once seen as burdens become contributors
- Transformation of societal attitudes, recognizing blind and visually impaired individuals as capable, valuable members of the community
