Programs and results
What we aim to solve
Many overseas organizations are doing high-value charitable work but lack the infrastructure to raise funds in the United States or may visit the United States to raise money but are unable to accept credit card donations or recurring donations. The White Rice Foundation was started after seeing nuns in rural Vietnam struggle to raise money to get food to feed school children so that they would have a meal to eat before they went to school. They would send a representative to the US once per year to collect donations, but donors were unable to donate monthly for their cause and because they lacked the financial infrastructure they were unable to accept donations by credit card or issue their donors tax-deductible receipts. The White Rice Foundation was started to help them and other organizations in similar positions.
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Feed Children
Many children in central Vietnam do not have enough to eat. This campaign provides various groups with resources to take care of children who live in poverty.
Educate Children
$1 per day can change a child's life forever by ensuring they are able to go to school, aren't distracted by hunger, and have all the tools necessary to succeed in life. After you start supporting a child for $30 per month, we will contact you to get you in touch with a child in need. Translators have also volunteered their time to assist with donors who do not speak Vietnamese.

What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
We have dedicated volunteers from all across the US who donate their time to help causes we support. We are fortunate enough to be able to support grantees with a small team to create marketing material for them and to provide the organizational structure to allow them to raise funds online.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
We provide almost 2,000 meals for at-risk children in Vietnam per month. In addition we recently started a campaign to sponsor the education of children in rural Vietnam and have several children sponsored on a continuing basis. Our BOD donates the money necessary to cover all administrative costs except for payment processing fees.
