WEAV is a non-profit foundation founded and managed by my sister. Please let me know if you are interested in purchasing raffle tickets. Thanks!! Mai Huynh, a single mother of three, a son and two daughters, earns $20 dollars a month. Keeping all three in school for one year is equivalent to 8 months of her wages. Her older daughter Ly, an honor student, had to drop out of senior high school to supplement the family income. Mai Huynh worries that younger daughter Dao, also a studious pupil, may not finish junior high school. The culture dictates that all efforts must be placed on schooling Nam. Though not very much eager to learn, the son is the priority. This is the face of gender inequality in Vietnam!
