Saigon Children's Charity CIO

Saigonchildren is the UK registered charity working exclusively in Vietnam. The vision for Saigonchildren is to remove barriers to education in Vietnam.

Our mission is that:
“Saigonchildren enables disadvantaged children in Vietnam to reach their full potential by receiving a quality education relevant to their needs.”

Saigonchildren is committed to the education of disadvantaged children from Tra Vinh on the southern coast to Tuyen Quang in the far north of Vietnam. We help by providing access to a good education and able to sustain themselves and their families.

Education is the most lasting and effective way we can help children and their families to escape from the cycle of poverty and it represents a double investment – an investment in the children but also an investment in the future of Vietnam. Saigonchildren has built up a reputation as a strong and effective NGO.

Saigonchildren builds schools where there are none or only the most basic provision; we provide scholarships and support to individual children from primary school to university and vocational training; we work with children with autism and other disabilities to provide access to education and we also support local Vietnamese organisations that support children with disabilities.
