Thank You for Building Stronger Communities
Because of you, families who once feared every storm now sleep safely at night. From all of us at Help for Hope — and the families supported through Blue Dragon — thank you for helping build safer homes and stronger futures.
The Families You've Helped
Tuan and his wife have always worked tirelessly to provide for their two children, relying mainly on Tuan’s fishing while his wife cared for the children and supported him whenever possible. Their new home, completed a year ago, stood strong during the recent storms. Although severe flooding washed away their fish and damaged many of their belongings, their house remained standing, and Blue Dragon is now supporting their recovery efforts, prioritizing keeping their children safely in school. Cu and Be once lived in a cramped house without a proper roof, constantly struggling with poverty. Cu worked as a bricklayer, while Be took on occasional housekeeping jobs to help support the family. Today, their new home, built on higher ground, kept them dry and safe during the recent floods, turning what was once uncertainty into stability. Khua and her children previously lived in a makeshift hut vulnerable to strong winds and rising waters. With their new, bigger, and sturdier home, Khua no longer fears the storms and can now focus on her children’s education—her daughters are in Grade 6 and Grade 3—while she grows corn and rice and works seasonally as a coffee picker to provide for her family. Phim, who is visually impaired, has always done everything he can to support his wife and two young children, despite his wife facing mental health challenges that make daily life especially difficult. Their new home has kept them safe through typhoons and landslides over the past year, providing not only shelter but also stability, allowing them to concentrate on rebuilding their lives and securing their children’s future.
