Our foundation supports many programs**** in Vietnam to educate girls and young women, helping them to break the poverty cycle.
A better life for young women can mean many things. A girl who completes her schooling grows into a woman who is better able to look after her health and that of her children. By finishing school, she will care more that her children finish theirs and be better able to support them while they are in school. As a result of the skills and competencies she has gained during her schooling, she will be better equipped to earn a living and so have greater independence and dignity. An educated young woman is also at considerably less risk of becoming a victim of the sex trade or ending up an imprisoned worker in a sweat shop.
The sense of self esteem and confidence that completing school gives can contribute significantly to the positive development not only of the individual, but also to that of their families, their community and society as a whole.
