Hello everyone
Im coming to Ho Chi Minh in January for 3 months and want to do some volunteer work or something like this during the days.  Can you give me some ideas and suggestions please.
Thanks :)

there are many organizations you can do by submit your CV (some NGO like Unicef or local NGOs. The easier way is contact directly to them so you can do voluntary in safely way.
Other case, u can attend with group on expat and do unofficially way - you can come to Chua La pagoda (where I used to do for gardening/taking care of orphaned chidlren) and or/other projects... just note that, goverment might not allow you to do..voluntary work unofficially.
So, based on your skills/professionals background, there are many things you can do, and you can find the best organizations and/or group to work with.
Thanks

Thanks for your kind intention. How about you teaching English to us of about 5 or 6 people? And we will donate some money to help the disabled and the unlucky in Vietnam. Thanks again and best wishes!
