An independent voice for ethical adoption
Ethica will be continuing the Blankets for Babies initiative in northern Vietnam and provide assistance for nearly 700 orphans and disadvantaged children. Poverty, poor crops, and unusually cold weather have taken a
toll on orphanages in Hanoi, Bac Giang, Hay Tay, and Bac Ninh
provinces. Sadly, this is supposed to be a joyful time of year for Vietnamese children as they prepare to celebrate Tet, the Lunar New Year. Culturally, this holiday can be likened to Christmas and is a time to gather with loved ones and community members. Help us provide some basic necessities for these children so that they can welcome the new year with hope and the knowledge that their plight is felt by children and families around the world.
We have 7 days to raise $10,000. Your donations will provide for nearly 700 children and their care for 1 month.
Please make a
501-C-3 tax deductible gift to Ethica, Inc. We cannot help these
children without your contributions.
A $600 donation will buy 100 children’s blankets.
Additional information on this effort with notes, updates, and photos of each orphanage will be posted soon. Thank you.
