How your support changes lives

Blue Dragon Children’s Foundation has been working with children in crisis in Vietnam from 2003 – street kids, children with disabilities, kids from extremely poor families, and victims of human trafficking and slavery. Your fundraising success will provide Blue Dragon kids with tuition fees to continue their education, a bicycle for their long journey to school, medical care, psychological counselling for survivors from sex trade trafficking or even a safe home.
Any support you give will help kids stand back on their feet and build their own futures.

The Blue Dragon Fundraising Effect!

How your donation can help

You CAN make a difference

Our amazing supporters have climbed a mountain, walked for miles, changed their appearance, cooked up a storm, done odd jobs, and danced their shoes off to make a difference to the life of a child! We’d love you to join the global support network for Blue Dragon’s kids. Whether you want to hold a simple raffle, plan a gala dinner or go bald for Blue Dragon, our fundraising team is here to support you. We will be happy to discuss your ideas, and help you promote your event.

Please contact us at fundraise@bdcf.org and start organising your fundraiser for Blue Dragon kids today!

Iron Woman
Anika Doutt and her friends took part in the half Iron Man Triathlon in Da Nang in May 2016 to fundraise for Blue Dragon. She completed a 1.9-km ocean swim, followed by a 90-km bicycle ride and finally a 21-km run. She raised money for the anti-trafficking program.

Reaching new heights

Two supporters have gone to great lengths – or heights – to raise money for Blue Dragon. Bach Nguyen climbed to the summit of Mt Kilimanjaro to fly the Blue Dragon flag and John Dave Ng ran a 70km marathon around mountainous Sapa – all in support of our anti-trafficking work.

Cementing change

A group of hardworking boys from HUTT International School in New Zealand worked odd jobs for 18 months and raised over 13,000USD to renovate a community centre in Hue. But it didn’t stop there – they came to Vietnam and helped with the construction work. Now that’s commitment!

A tasty idea

Jaki from the UK loves to cook and holds regular supper clubs serving up yummy authentic dishes from Vietnam including Banh Xeo, Goi Cuon, Pho and Imperial rolls. She asks her guests to make a donation to charities.  Jaki supports Blue Dragon’s free lunch program for street kids.
