Team XX, 2005

Phong Dien, April 2005

Team XX, the 12 members of Team XX, by the far the largest VVRP team in recent years, visited the commune of Phong Dien in Thua-Thien Hue province where they helped build a three room primary school. Because Phong Dien is in a flood zone the school has been designed so a second floor can be added later. The VVRP and East Meets West each provided $10,000 to fund construction of the project.
