Dear Friends of Rock-Paper-Scissors Children’s Fund,
Over the last four weeks a group of 14 volunteers including myself and my two daughters, have been here in Vietnam helping us to run our art, music, bikes for girls and summer camp program which takes place in a small, ethnic minority village called Son Tan, in the province of Khanh Hoa. This year one of our returning volunteers (this is his third year) created a great little video of one of our camp days in the village of Son Tan. Watch it here:
Rock-Paper-Scissor's Summer Camp 2017
There are 150 families living in this village, all very, very poor. The school in the village ends at 5th grade, and the children have little opportunity to continue school.We provide year round support and mentoring through our art program in the village for 30 children.
In addition to our year-round program, each summer we love to bring our volunteers to this village and provide some fun for the children. We play music, and do art projects, yoga, puppets and games. At the end of each camp we provide the children with a full, nutritious meal along with bread and fruit.
If you would like to help us fund our camps, please consider making a donation to this project (our art program) and we will buy art supplies and meals for the kids. Each summer camp cost approximately $2,500 USD for 120 kids.
Thanks so much and we hope that you enjoy Wesley’s video!
