Huge thanks to our community, senior group & Ben Franklin high school for a successful food drive. Today we dropped off all the donations to our local food pantry , Giving Hope , who services so many families in the New Orleans East area.

With so much happening in the world, it’s important to remember what truly matters: kindness, generosity, and creating space for everyone to belong.

VIET is so grateful we get to serve our community today and everyday!

A season for family. A season for togetherness.🧡🍁

🇺🇸 Today, we honor all who have served — the veterans who have bravely defended freedom and the countless families whose lives were forever shaped by war.

As we mark 50 years since the Fall of Saigon, we reflect on the deep connection between service, sacrifice, and resilience. Many Vietnamese refugees and American veterans share intertwined stories of courage, rebuilding, and hope — stories that continue to shape our community today.

To all who served and those who carry the legacy of that service: thank you. Your strength reminds us that healing and unity are possible when we stand together. ❤️💛💙
