Volunteer project: The volunteer project will take place on an island on the Red River next to Hanoi. The people on this island are living in very old slum boats and have no fresh water and electricity. They have to use dirty water from the Red River. International volunteers, with the help of local volunteers, are expected to make “water filters” and give them to the poor people. Volunteers will experience the peaceful scenery of Hanoi City and the nice Long Bien Bridge (the most historical bridge in Vietnam). After your project, the local people will have better living conditions. Besides working, volunteers will organize some games and football matches for the local youth and children on the beach by the Red River.
Special requirements: Volunteers will work in a different social and cultural environment and have to be flexible. They are expected to be motivated and to participate actively.
Project language: English
Location: About 7 km north from Viet Tri City and 90 km north from Hanoi Capital.
