About Friends of Hue Foundation

FHF was officially founded in May 2000 for the purpose of assisting victims of the November 1999 flood in central Vietnam, especially at ThuaThien Hue Province. This natural disaster was the worst to hit this region in the 20th century. After surveying the damage in this area, the United Nations Development Programs and local authorities confirmed that the victims of the flood will need assistance for at least 10 years before they can return to a normal existence. In September 2000, a group of FHF’s representatives, at their own expense, visited ThuaThien Hue to start a long-term assistance program. The group included Professor James Freeman, Ms. Dang Thi Lieu, volunteer Nguyen TrungTomiko M.D. and Mr. Nguyen DinhHuu. Vietnamese officials authorized FHF to set up an office in Hue City to pursue the foundation’s charitable activities. In its past decade of operation in Vietnam, Friends of Hue Foundation has helped numerous impoverished people in Hue to have better access to health care, education, and economic self-sufficiency. Today, it continues to help reduce poverty, increase health care access, enhance business and skills development, and implement sustainable solutions to mend communities in Hue and throughout Vietnam.
