Vantage Foundation Teams Up with Blue Dragon Children's Foundation
In a remarkable move to strengthen child protection efforts, the Vantage Foundation has partnered with the Blue Dragon Children's Foundation in Vietnam. This collaboration is designed to safeguard children who are victims of human trafficking and exploitation, providing them with a safe environment, educational opportunities, and a pathway to a brighter future.
Blue Dragon Children's Foundation is well-known for its holistic approach to child welfare, which focuses on rescuing children at risk and offering them long-term support. The organization actively works to prevent human trafficking through educational initiatives and outreach to vulnerable communities. Many of the young individuals in need hail from rural areas and seek employment in cities, where they are particularly susceptible to the false promises made by human traffickers. Blue Dragon collaborates with schools and local communities to keep children in education, teach them how to stay safe from human trafficking, and empower families to protect their children.
According to Michael Brosowski, founder of Blue Dragon, "Human traffickers prey on hope. When families have the right knowledge, that hope turns into strength, not weakness."
During a recent visit to the Blue Dragon center in Hanoi, volunteers from Vantage Foundation interacted directly with children and staff. Team members assisted in preparing meals for the children and spent quality time during lunch, creating moments filled with joy and inspiration, while building meaningful connections. Steven Xie, Executive Director of the Vantage Foundation, shared, "These moments remind us that healing often begins with something as simple as a shared meal and a kind word."
Beyond rescue operations, Blue Dragon offers free education to homeless and impoverished children, helping them catch up on schoolwork and reintegrate into the educational system. The Vantage Foundation supports the development of these programs to ensure that more children gain safety, education, and long-term support.
"We believe lasting change begins with providing dignity and opportunities," added Steven Xie. "The holistic, human-centered approach of Blue Dragon's foundation is a source of great inspiration, and we are honored to have the chance to make a difference."
Through this partnership, Vantage Foundation reinforces its commitment to protecting the most vulnerable children, preventing human trafficking, and building safer communities. This alliance reflects a shared vision that every child deserves a chance to grow up free from exploitation, equipped with the tools and opportunities necessary for personal development.
