Philanthropy & Social Enterprise Program

About the Program

Rooted in HPDF’s core values—Identity, Humanity, Heritage & Creativity—this program reflects our commitment to Vietnam’s sustainable development through the advancement of philanthropy and social enterprise.

We believe that philanthropy and social enterprise play a vital role in building an inclusive society, fostering environmental responsibility, and empowering communities.
