Dear all supporters,
As you know, I traveled this Spring with the members of the Reaching Out Foundation group to Vietnam for one of my assessment trips. This was a special trip since it marks 20th-year of ROF doing charity work. This is the product of my work with documenting the trip and producing this story. I am sharing it to all of you through this website.
