There are countries in the world that are living in poverty and more hardships compared to the rest. These people lack the access to basic needs of humans and their government does not have enough resources to provide it to them. Their health, education and other needs are not adequately met giving them a hard time to survive and lesser opportunities to improve their lives.
Volunteers around the world could help in solving these problems and the families who are experiencing them. The Vietnam mission trips are among the many opportunities present in traveling and living in a foreign land while helping the indigenous people there. Vietnam, located in Southeast Asia, is a communist country which starting to recover from its experience in hardship due to the war.
Most of the people are into agriculture to make a living but there are others who recently are in industry of manufacturing and information technologies. This is because the country has opened itself up to the global economy after the trade embargo due to the war has been lifted. The economic situation has improved over the years but this has not been felt by everyone yet.
There are many forms of mission trips being done into the country and this usually includes assistance in education and healthcare. Different organizations are the ones responsible for making these things possible by inviting volunteers, which pay the fees using their own money, and donations from those who want to help. Visa and airfare must be prepared by the volunteers themselves because the fees include only the accommodations and transportation within the country.
Medical professional volunteers are the usual people in medical missions in order to provide the service that is needed. Various health problems would be checked by them to know if they are affected with it. They would treat the patients as best as they can with the equipment available and providing them with medicines.
Specific conditions are being addressed as well such as providing eyeglasses to those having a hard time to see clearly. Dental check ups for improving their dental health are done as well as providing dentures to those who need it. Wheelchairs and other kinds of walking aids are given to people with disabilities too.
Education is given about various fields and skills that may be helpful in improvement of their conditions. The volunteers are teaching them English and skills like swimming which helps in their survival as drowning was found to be the number one cause of death for children in the country. This would help them survive being in water either by accident or not.
Fun activities are also included in the missions to have leisure with others such as picnics, going to the beach and watching movies. Relationships and friendship will be created and improved with these activities. It is also the time the volunteers can relax and enjoy the place.
If you want to experience new things and maybe make yourself a better person, joining in these missions might be the thing for you. There are many things you can do to other people to help them help themselves. Invite your family and friends to go along with you so they would also be able to experience this with you.
