The Center for the Blind in Hanoi is a school for blind children and a center for blind adults. While providing a valuable service, the center is understaffed and under-funded, making daily activities difficult to accomplish while catering to the needs of those attending the center. The lack of resources makes it hard for the center to provide the kinds of programs the children would normally receive if they were not deprived of their sight. Through helping at the school and providing English language education, it is our goal to aid the children in becoming confident in their English skills as well as themselves.

Most importantly the volunteers need to be open-minded, have tolerance, respect for others, initiative, creative, patient and enjoy working with disadvantaged children, and more specifically those who are blind. Self-motivation is very important as well as being enthusiastic in their volunteer work. Volunteers should respect the culture, dress codes, and traditions very closely. They need to be flexible with local foods, accommodations and systems of living, as this is a cultural learning process for the volunteers as well. |
