Our story, the work we do, and our fight to stop trafficking was featured in three episodes of the CNN Freedom Project.

Catalyst Foundation was founded in 1999, focused on improving the lives of orphaned, abandoned, and homeless children in Vietnam. Today, using a holistic community development approach, we address some of the root causes of child trafficking including extreme poverty and are able to raise awareness, provide access to school and increase economic opportunities for ethnic minority children and their families.

We firmly believe that the most effective way to break the cycle of poverty is to strategically empower whole communities by educating, providing training and employment, building safe and sanitary dwellings, and empowering children to stand up with dignity.
