VHCHE, Corp. seeks out opportunities for community outreach through our ambassador program which involves sending ambassadors to fulfill our mission of raising awareness and funds for children uneducated or undereducated in underserved communities by utilizing a variety of means such as charitable events in the United States and abroad.
Through the VHCHE’s Ambassador Program, the issue of health and education in underserved communities will be highlighted and brought to the attention of diverse audiences.
VHCHE, Corp. will set up/develop an exchange or sabbatical program where high school or college graduates can be sponsored to take a year off to go teach at schools in underserved communities in different countries around the world.
VHCHE Mission Trips
VHCHE provides opportunities to supporters and benefactors to participate in its charitable projects during mission trips in communities VHCHE serves. VHCHE is considering including students and other volunteers to these mission trips in the future.
Engagement Opportunities
VHCHE provides opportunities for collaboration between students in the United States and those in the communities VHCHE serves. VHCHE recently began a pen pal program with two elementary schools in Cameroon and two elementary schools in Alexandria, VA. In January 2023, we facilitated a zoom call between the four schools. The meeting was attended by over 150 students and teachers and the students benefited from an exchange of ideas across cultures. Students will continue to write letters to their peers across continents and to learn more about each other. If you’re interested in participating in this program, please email us at vhchecorp@gmail.com.
VHCHE also provides opportunities to schools to have a VHCHE representative speak to students about the children who benefit from VHCHE charitable work, and the challenges they face in other parts of the world. These speaking engagements have been been successful and have inspired US students to corporal works of mercy. If interested, please email us at vhchecorp@gmail.com.

Orange Hunt Swim team in Springfield, VA in partnership with VHCHE, has hosted a Swim-A-Thon to raise money to support VHCHE mission work. The Second Annual Swim-A-Thon fundraiser is scheduled for July 13, 2023 starting at 7:30am. About 150 swimmers of all ages are expected to swim to raise money to drill wells in Cameroon, so that children do not have to walk miles to the nearest spring and carry water on their head either before or after school so that the family can have water to drink. You do not need to be a swimmer to support this fundraising event. For more information or to donate, please email us at vhchecorp@gmail.com. Let us know if your community pool is interested in hosting a fundraiser Swim-A-Thon.
We welcome any new fundraising ideas and are open to suggestions.
