Over the past months, we have all watched the media coverage of the ongoing war in Ukraine.

Many of our volunteers and supporters in AHHA have roots in Vietnam, a country that has suffered from scourges of war. We understand firsthand the hardships refugees endure. Moved by their plight and aligned with our mission to support vulnerable communities worldwide, AHHA has successfully launched a fundraising appeal for Ukrainian refugees.

AHHA is committed to ensuring that your generous donations go directly to where they are needed most. To this end, all funds raised were donated to UNICEF to provide urgent humanitarian and medical aid to Ukrainian child refugees.
