Introduction
Hope Express is a hands-on, professional fundraising practicum designed for adults 20+ who are eager to learn ethical fundraising and create real impact. Over a minimum stay of two weeks, participants work individually with C4C’s experienced coordinators and community partners to design, launch, and complete a real-world fundraising mission—directly benefiting disadvantaged communities in Central Vietnam.
More than just a volunteer experience, Hope Express empowers you to learn ethical fundraising principles, practice donor engagement and stewardship, and deliver tangible results. Supported by C4C’s mentorship and HerKitchen’s catering team, you’ll plan an online crowdfunding campaign and a fundraising event for Danang’s expat community, culminating in a final Hope Express delivery day—where you’ll bring gifts and donations directly to your chosen community.
Accommodation and Meals
Participants stay at the C4C volunteer house dormitory—a safe, comfortable, and welcoming space. All meals and drinks are included, with options for both local Vietnamese cuisine and familiar comfort foods to help you feel at home.
Quick Summary
Hope Express is a transformative 2-week program that blends learning, practicing, and delivering. Participants learn ethical fundraising skills, launch an online crowdfunding campaign, host a fundraising event with expat supporters, and personally deliver donations to their chosen community. The result? Confidence, connections, and real-world impact.
