Catalyst Foundation

For children and families living in extreme poverty in Vietnam, Catalyst Foundation is a humanitarian organization that supports community programs to provide basic needs, job opportunities, counseling and education to prevent the trafficking of young children. We believe that through these support mechanisms, the cycle of poverty can be broken and we can be the catalyst for hope.
