Our Goals

Our Five Year Goals

As we strive to make significant differences in the lives of Vietnamese youth, we will reach our goals by being focused, dedicated, and through the generosity of like minded individuals and organizations. We are committed that “for every dollar raised, at least 97 cents will go toward the cause of elevating the education level of the children in Vietnam”. This is the highest measurement of integrity and efficiency and the best way to demonstrate our gratitude for the trust people have in Sunflower Mission and its objective.

Note: 2002 starts from 10/30/02 when Sunflower Mission received 501c3 status
