Hi I am Matt. A 14 year old school student gifted with this humbling opportunity to lend a helping hand to a Vietnamese community. This tour is a hands-on community project that will allow me to work closely within a Vietnamese village while providing me with a rich cultural insight. Personally, I am hoping to develop through challenging and real-world decision making to become a more compassionate person.

When I was 11, I was lucky enough to visit the beautiful country of Vietnam and have wanted to return since. I am thrilled to be able to go back on an Antipodeans community service tour to improve the infrastucture of local schools via building and renovation, as well as interacting with local children and community members. 

The cost of this tour is $5,090 plus vaccinations and visas. As I am only 14 and a full time student, this is a huge financial burden for my parents. Therefore, I am taking on the responsablity and trying to raise as much of the funds as I possibly can.

If you are able to help me with this incredible opportunity thank you.

Matt.
