Danang Offices Moved

We have moved to new offices! All of our staff, partners, and children and their families are delighted. The new space is handicap accessible with a large room on the first floor to meet all of our children and families. While the new office remains in the Hai Chau District, it is now more central to many of the other districts in which we work including Ngu Hanh Son and Hoa Vang (these are both rural southern and western districts of the city). In the photo, our staff are posing in front their wonderful new office.
