Damien The Leper Society provided financial support to build a house for a leper family.
This spacious house is built in Yên Bái province in the highland of North Vietnam. Typical of the houses in this area, the house is on stilt, high and spacious due to the abundance of local building material, covered by thatched roof and bamboo weaves for the sides. Without our help, this couple would then have to struggle for a place to live and would have a difficult time in going through with the long and arduous treatment of leprosy.
