Solidarity Trip With Autour Asia And Association Amitié Corse Vietnam

Under the banner of solidarity and sharing, Autour Asia had the honor of accompanying the Association Amitié Corse - Vietnam in a beautiful humanitarian initiative: a solidarity trip dedicated to the children of the Huu Nghi Dong Da Children’s Foster Home in Hanoi. Thanks to the association’s ongoing support, these 46 children in difficult circumstances receive valuable assistance for their daily needs, education, and personal development. This time, they had the opportunity to enjoy an unforgettable day of relaxation and laughter at VinWonders Ocean Park 2 & 3, near Hanoi, together with volunteers who came from France.

1. Introduction to the Association Amitié Corse - Viet

Founded by a group of volunteers in Corsica, the Association Amitié Corse - Viet has been working for many years to help disadvantaged children in Vietnam. Its main action focuses on the Huu Nghi Dong Da Children’s Foster Home in Hanoi, where 46 children currently live, many of whom have faced particularly difficult family situations - the loss of a parent, lack of guidance, or extreme poverty.

Every month, the association contributes to the costs of food, housing, clothing, and school supplies, while also supporting educational and personal development activities. Its goal is to offer these children a stable, caring, and hopeful environment, while fostering the values of solidarity and friendship between France and Vietnam.

2. The Role of Autour Asia: A True Bridge of Solidarity

In this beautiful human adventure, Autour Asia acts as a genuine bridge between the French association and local Vietnamese organizations. The agency supports the humanitarian actions of Amitié Corse – Viet by facilitating on-site logistics, coordinating activities, and ensuring the smooth implementation of solidarity projects. Beyond its organizational role, Autour Asia shares the same philosophy - that of responsible and solidarity-based travel. The team is committed to turning every experience into an authentic encounter, where travel becomes an act of sharing and humanity. This collaboration demonstrates that tourism, when carried out with purpose and respect, can truly become a powerful force for social change.

3. Objectives and activities of the trip to Ocean Park 2 & 3, Hanoi

This solidarity outing took place at Ocean Park 2 and Ocean Park 3, also known as VinWonders Ocean Park 2 & 3 or Hanoi Ocean Park 2 & 3, located in Hưng Yên, just outside Hanoi. These two modern complexes, developed by the Vingroup group, are true integrated leisure spaces combining water parks, residential areas, and green spaces. The site offers an ideal setting for relaxation, fun, and discovering another side of modern Vietnam.

The aim of the day was to provide the children with a moment of relaxation, discovery, and togetherness, while strengthening bonds of friendship and trust among them. Accompanied by six volunteers from France - Monique, Claude, Noelle, Christian, Patrick, and Leititia - the children were able to play freely, enjoy aquatic activities at the Royal Wave Park in the Hanoi VinWonders Water Park, and experience a day filled with laughter, games, and smiles.

This simple yet precious experience allowed the children to grow, learn to support one another, and create unforgettable memories - a beautiful illustration of what it truly means to travel with the heart. At the end of this wonderful day at VinWonders Ocean Park 2 & 3, all participants left with hearts full of memories and emotions.

This solidarity trip perfectly embodies the shared mission of the Association Amitié Corse - Vietnam and Autour Asia: to build bridges between cultures, bring moments of happiness to those in need, and prove that kindness knows no borders. These gestures, sometimes simple but always sincere, help to build a more humane and united world. Because yes, sometimes the most beautiful journey is not the one that takes us far away, but the one that brings us closer to one another.
