Turn poverty into motivation for a beautiful life

Nguyen Duc Hau - a boy who grew up without family love - understands the emptiness of a child without enough arms to protect him. Not letting the past hold him back, Hau chose to walk towards people with similar lives.

Duc Hau founded the Lam Ha Charity Club, traveling to remote areas, giving notebooks, bicycles, scholarships... to children and people in need.

Children receive gifts

For Hau, each trip is a time to entrust part of his youth into the eyes of children so that they can see that, no matter what circumstances they are born into, there will always be someone who loves and accompanies them.
