The VFW National Home for Children is how America cares about the children and families of its veterans and active duty servicemen and women. Since 1925, the National Home has helped these children and families through its helpline services and campus village. It's where a child or grandchild or a spouse with children of veterans can find solace in time of need. They may live on its campus or receive professional assistance remotely. Ultimately, the VFW National Home for Children is where those who bear the additional cost of war - the children and families - are remembered and served.

Founded in 2000 by Fr. Thuan and two friends based in San Francisco, CA, the Blind Vietnamese Children Foundation assisted The Lover of the Holy Cross Sisters who had just established Nhat Hong Thi Nghe Home for the Blind in Ho Chi Minh City (1995). Up to the present time with the Foundation’s support the Sisters expanded to nine homes and schools with a total of almost 400 students. The Foundation has also provided funding to maintain the homes, schools, and healthcare centers for visually impaired children administered by other lay or religious groups. The Foundation is governed by a volunteer board of directors and supported by hundreds of friends who give much of their time and wealth throughout the year to assist in BVCF fundraising efforts. Every year the Foundation organized the benefit luncheons or dinners with silent and live auctions, and raffles. A lively family atmosphere blends different cultures and faiths in a single effort to help our very special children live promising lives in Vietnam.
