Dear Friends,

Since 2018, Vietnamese Boat People has preserved more than 350 stories, engaged over 4,000 participants, and reached audiences in more than 20 countries through our podcast, exhibitions, storytelling programs, and digital archives. Our mission and commit has remained strong; to uplift the stories that shaped the Vietnamese diaspora community, share them with broader audiences and ensure they continue to inspire future generations. The support of the community has helped us honor these stories through the Our Journeys exhibition, new podcast episodes, film screenings, book talks, storytelling workshops, and our annual story slam.

We need your help to raise $26,000 in 2026 to continue our public programming.

No amount is too small—every dollar truly goes far. Your contribution today fuels what comes next:

Sharing the Our Journeys traveling exhibition with more communities and cities across the nation
Supporting this year's The 7th Annual Mỹ Việt Story Slam
Deepening our digital archives with more community recordings
And continuing to create spaces where our community’s voices can be heard and celebrated
