We're very proud to have finished building 2 new houses for families in Hue (Central Vietnam). Each house cost about $2000, and both families have been victims of child traffickers in the past.
The "Before and After" shots tell quite a story!
This is the house of a teenage girl who was trafficked to a garment factory...
Before...
After...
... and this house is where a 15 year old boy who was trafficked lives. It's one of the worst houses we've come across in recent times - far worse than the photo suggests!
Before...
After...
We don't put the Blue Dragon logo on the houses we build, because we see the homes as belonging entirely to the families, but during the week we'll have a small celebration with the families, their communities and the local Red Cross.
I think that a small party is well and truly in order!
