The aim of our association is to help the children of Ho Chi Minh City (Saïgon) Vietnam, who live in extreme poverty.
In Vietnam school education is fee-paying therefore it is optional. The children go to school only if the family can afford it, but most of them will never go to school. The parents go to work very early in the morning and the children stay alone all day long with their elder sister or brother who look after them.

Seeing this misery a French Vietnamese woman opened a kindergarten in one of the poorest area of Ho Chi Minh City.The children from 16 months old to 6 years old are looked after every day from 7 am to 5 pm.In that center the children are fed, washed and educated within a local environment.
Nowadays this woman supported by 12 youth workers, welcomes more than 130 children everyday..
In order to help these courageous women l’Arche des Enfants needs your donation..

Without money this project could not continue and the children will lose a real chance to have a future.
