A Day of Care at Chùa Từ Quang Temple
Year:
2016
Location:
Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam
Beneficiary:
Individuals in districts on the outskirts of Ho Chi Minh City
Project Details:
In November 2016, Generously Giving Back (GGB) partnered with Chùa Từ Quang Temple in Bình Chánh District to deliver a full day of care and nourishment to villagers living with visual impairments, cancer, and other chronic conditions.
Though modest and weathered, Chùa Từ Quang serves as a sanctuary of compassion, welcoming hundreds each month from Hóc Môn and Củ Chi districts.
This month, 550 individuals were transported by temple-organized buses to receive:
- Breakfast, lunch, and dinner
- Haircuts and hygiene care
- Medical checkups, acupuncture, massage, and pulse-based eastern diagnostics
- Medication and wellness support
- Care packages with snacks and essentials for the journey home
GGB proudly sponsored the lunch, snacks, and care packages, while numerous volunteer groups contributed food, drinks, and hands-on service throughout the day.
Special thanks to Goodwill Ambassador Chi Lan for coordinating this deeply impactful outreach.
