On a recent visit to Vietnam I met Daragh Halpin in Hanoi City. Daragh helps run the Koto Project which is truly inspirational.
Koto takes in underprivileged and street children and by training them in their restaurant makes them employable and placeable with many of the branded hotels and restaurants in Vietnam.
Koto not only trains them in the kitchen and restaurant skills they also feed clothe, educate and teach them english as well as paying them. The restaurant is very busy and offers great food and is firmly established on the Hanoi tourist trial.
This project is catering based and very worthy of our support. Our aim is to organised a fund & organise scholarship training programmes to Ireland for the Koto trainees.
We're climbing Slieve Donard, Co. Down on the 9th & 10th of May!!!
