Based in Harford County, Maryland, Project Patriot is committed to one mission; to provide fellowship and support to Our Nation's Finest, current and former military, law enforcement and first responders, and their families. We take great care in concentrating on those who suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) ,traumatic brain injury (TBI), and adjustment disorders. We are also committed to educating our fellow citizens about the massive sacrifices that our heroes have made on their behalf. When a service member comes home from a traumatic event, the war within is just beginning. When a law enforcement officer or first responder comes home after a tragic event, the struggles within are just beginning.

Founded in 2000 by Fr. Thuan and two friends based in San Francisco, CA, the Blind Vietnamese Children Foundation assisted The Lover of the Holy Cross Sisters who had just established Nhat Hong Thi Nghe Home for the Blind in Ho Chi Minh City (1995). Up to the present time with the Foundation’s support the Sisters expanded to nine homes and schools with a total of almost 400 students. The Foundation has also provided funding to maintain the homes, schools, and healthcare centers for visually impaired children administered by other lay or religious groups. The Foundation is governed by a volunteer board of directors and supported by hundreds of friends who give much of their time and wealth throughout the year to assist in BVCF fundraising efforts. Every year the Foundation organized the benefit luncheons or dinners with silent and live auctions, and raffles. A lively family atmosphere blends different cultures and faiths in a single effort to help our very special children live promising lives in Vietnam.
