Day 5 of the Kids Without Borders (KWB) - Rotary HumaniTour
There are currently 284 families living in the Dong Son Commune. Half of the population living in Dong Son used to live directly on the former A So base and were relocated to the village in 2000 when it was determined that the former air base still had elevated levels of dioxin from Agent Orange on the base.
Thanks to the Rotary Foundation, the U.S - Viet Nam Dialogue Group, and the Aspen Institute, the families in the Dong Son Commune now have clean water. After the dedication ceremony, our goup visited some of the families and distributed gifts to children in the commune.
