Mai Kim Khanh - Office based volunteer

In 2008, being a sophomore at International Relations, I oriented myself to find a part time job in order to gain some practical workplace experience. My life was drastically changed when I found out about EFD. I was completely convinced by EFD projects and their aim to educate disadvantaged children. Children in all circumstances need supportive educational conditions to develop well. Fortunately, I was given the opportunity to join EFD in October 2008 to give a hand to creating a better study environment for the disadvantaged.  I always believe that working brings great value, however not only values such as material possessions but also contributes to the community. Thank you to EFD for giving me a great friendly working place with many precious experiences in life. Furthermore, for also giving me a chance to devote my youth to my country.

Nguyen Minh Tam - Online volunteer

I started my volunteer role at EFD when I was graduating from Foreign Trade University in 2005. Translating is my usual task but recently; I have also been involved in looking for potential contacts for EFD's fund-raising activities. For me, doing - giving - contributing to communities returns me in different ways, because I can learn new values in life and look at things in different perspectives from my exposure to voluntary activities. That’s the reason why I keep contributing voluntarily at EFD in the coming time.
