Thank you for your interest in CNCF and your offer to help is greatly appreciated. There are lots of things you can do.
1. MAKE A DONATION
You can make donations in a number of ways. Click here for more information.
2. SPONSOR A CHILD
For a small monthly donation, you can sponsor a child and receive regular reports of how your money will enrich their life, with food, shelter, medical attention and education. See the Sponsorship section for more details.
3. ADOPT A PROJECT
In the last ten years, Christina and her Foundation have established over 40 projects in Vietnam and 4 projects in Mongolia assisting over 150,000 of the poorest and most vulnerable children and their families. If you would like to learn more about how you, your company or organization can adopt a CNCF project in Vietnam or Mongolia and help Christina to secure the children's future, please don't hesitate to contact us directly.

4. VOLUNTEER
It is part of our philosophy to involve the indigenous population wherever possible. This has the dual advantage of giving the children long-term carers and creating local employment, thereby allowing the local population to influence the lives of their children.
While visa restrictions make it difficult, volunteers are welcome, especially those with special medical qualifications. Why not read the volunteering guidelines for Vietnam? If you would like to volunteer to work in Mongolia, email the office directly.
5. FUNDRAISING
Join your local CNCF fundraising committee and lend your skills to organising our official events. Perhaps you can help on events already planned? For details of upcoming events near you, check out the Event Diary. If you have a venue suitable for a fundraising event, run a catering company or could supply some raffle prizes, please get in touch with your nearest CNCF office.
6. WISH LIST
We regularly update our Wish List with small items we require in Vietnam and Mongolia. If you are able to donate something on the list or are planning a trip to Vietnam or Mongolia and could bring some items with you, simply fill out the form and your nearest CNCF representative will contact you.
7. PUBLICITY
Raise awareness of the plight of the world's children and the work that CNCF is doing to alleviate their suffering. Tell your family, friends and colleagues about this web site and come back regularly for the latest news and information on forthcoming events in our Event Diary.
8. CHRISTINA'S BOOKS
Give Christina's books 'Bridge Across My Sorrows' and 'Mama Tina' as presents and ask your friends to circulate them. They're available at any good book stores.
9. SERVICES
If you can offer any service to help the Foundation in its work, do get in touch with your nearest CNCF office.
10. VISIT THE FOUNDATION IN VIETNAM!
We would of course welcome the opportunity of introducing you first hand to some of the wonderful work undertaken by Christina and the Foundation in Vietnam.
We are more than happy to show you around our Social & Medical Centre and Sunshine School in HCMC. Our visiting times are from Monday to Friday at either 10:00am or 3:00pm as this causes the least disruption to the children and doesn't interfere with the nurse’s routine or responsibilities. It would be greatly appreciated if you could make an appointment prior to your visit to ensure our office is open and that someone is available show you around and of course introduce you to the children.
We prefer group sizes not to exceed 4 people and photography is prohibited at all times to prevent upsetting or disrespecting the children. Please feel free to contact us for further clarification.
Our address is 38 Tu Xuong Street, District 3, Ho Chi Minh City and it’s about a 5-10 minute taxi ride from district 1 (the centre of town).
11. CONTACTS
If you know of anyone you think would be able to help the Christina Noble Children's Foundation in the ways outlined above, please contact your nearest CNCF office.
