A new kitchen at Tay Xuan Daycare Center
Located 15 Km from Hue Centre, Huong Xuan is one of the poor wards of Huong Tra town of Thua Thien Hue Province with the population of 12,600 inhabitants in 2100 households. In 2011 with the support of DOVE Fund, Hearts For Hue in collaboration with the people committee of Huong Xuan started the construction of a daycare center named Tay Xuan with 2 classrooms, one kitchen and a toilet system to serve the education for 80 children aged from 3-5 years old in Huong Xuan.

Two hygienic latrines were built thanks to the sponsorship of Loving Work Foundation
With the main aim of improving the safety of women and children in the community through improved privacy when toilet and showering, Hearts For Hue has assisted two impoverished households to build two hygienic latrines. These families have been living in a temporary house without a hygienic latrine for a long time. They only dig a hole and defecating till it fully, then backfilling in their garden. This has exerted many negative impacts on the environment as well as their health. Owing to the disadvantaged, building a hygienic latrine was beyond their reach. See more
