Here is the thing I want to go to Da Lat Vietnam to help out the needy and people there. Can some one recommend a orphanage, old folks home, a home for disabled or something like that? It would be useful if some sort of contact information is provided.

The answer you got to your funding question is spot on. No charity Org is going to fund you to take photos. Why? Every man Jack and his dog has high quality camera gear these days and getting someone to take photos as a courtesy is not a problem. They have more pressing needs for their funding. You will also need a work permit and no one is going to issue you one to take photos in a country where there are 1000s of Vietnamese photographers trying to earn a living. Do not attempt to ply your trade on a tourist visa! I live 125 ks from Da Lat. Will be going up there for the flower festival in January. I see from a previous answer you’re a Canon man. So am I. Don’t go bringing anything like an EOS 1D Mark iv, or even a 5D Mark ii. Not unless you have full insurance cover. My wife had her handbag ripped from her arm in Saigon the other day. Fortunately she wasn’t seriously injured. Camera theft is also a big problem here. There are 2nd hand camera shops all over the place and they’re getting their high end stuff from somewhere! Something like a 7D sporting a 17-55 f/2.8 IS lens would represent 3 years income to most people here. I love photography and have some good stuff, but only carry my 500D when I’m traveling about. As for working in a Orphanage/Old Folks Home? Forget it. Vietnam wants funding not workers that’s why they’ve changed the visa laws. Attempting to ”help out” the needy would be seen as a violation of your tourist visa. These guys do not think like you or I and Western ”assumption” can get you into a lot of hot water here.

http://www.facebook.com/LegalZoom Starting a Charity was easy with LegalZoom’s help. Time to brush your teeth! is a phrase the majority of us take for granted. For most children, brushing their teeth is part of a daily routine. However, while traveling recently through impoverished regions of Vietnam and Cambodia, we found that basic dental needs are not being met. I knew that starting a non-profit, charity organization was a good way to help. We visited many orphanages and childrens organizations and realized that thousands have never seen a dentist. Many don’t even know what a toothbrush or toothpaste is. These are basic necessities that every child deserves. We recently used LegalZoom to quickly incorporate Project Healthy Smile. Our mission is to provide oral health education and dental supplies to underprivileged children globally. Our video shows images of children in need and our first successful mission in Vietnam. LegalZoom helped us start our charity now, would you please help us with your votes to continue saving smiles worldwide. | LegalZoom Customer Story Contest

Dear Friends,

You are all requested to join me for the noble cause of CHAIRTY FOR ALL by joining my group on facebook

http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=117365498294928

In this era of inflation and recession all over the globe, Stansoft serves as a beacon of light for those who are capable but helpless and needy. Stansoft seeks to establish a relationship that helps to meet the needs of those unable to find any meaningful assistance elsewhere.

There are several organizations interested in the continued existence of the problems of those less fortunate and the portrayal of low-income people as victims in need of financial help but there is something we can do more than the financial donations which provides the help and satisfaction for a temporary period.

STANSOFT DO WHAT IS CHARITABLE, NOT WHAT IS PROFITABLE.

Yes, we like to do things a bit differently. STANSOFT, a BPO organization, providing an equal opportunity outsource employment for capable and needy human resource all around the world is now expanding its sphere of services. Instead of money we offer employment. Instead of a limited and temporary financial help we provide a wide range of means of income for those unable to provide food for their families.

You can be a part of this network to promote this cause by:

* Joining and promoting this group among your friends and co-workers.

* Suggest innovative ideas for strengthening the structure of the program

* Donate some time for this program and work with us directly as a service provider or spend sometime for doing administrative tasks like stimulating with the companies (Service buyer) and convincing the idea of our program / Blog writing / promoting over internet.

REMEMBER, CHARITY BEGINS AT HOME

I have initiated the idea for a noble cause. Now you all are invited to contribute in this cause. Play your role and help to retain this program as it is our social responsibility.

Thanks for reading this. You all are requested to send me the ideas and feedback about this program.

Regards,
Tanveer Imam
Stansoft Solution.

JOIN THE GROUP AND INVEST FOR A GOOD FUTURE….!!!

Cambodia is an extremely poor country especially in the countryside.
They receive very little assistance from the government or charity organizations.
A small group of individuals in the United States decided to collect donations
from other caring individuals to assist in building the bridge. The bridge will allow
citizens in this city to trade and travel to nearby cities safely.
Having this bridge will also allow the citizens to provide for their family.

Canadians are a giving and charitable people on the whole. Canadians are compassionate and caring. The whole Boat For Hope event at the Kelowna Yacht Club was put on by volunteers, people volunteered their time, boats, fuel etc and businesses assisted in any way they could selflessly. Thank you to Nester Market for supplying enough food and drinks to feed hundreds.
