Nui Dat Kindergarten Vietnam Charity Dinner

There is a great 100% volunteer organisation called the Australian Vietnam Veterans Reconstruction Group (AVVRG) holding an upcoming charity dinner in Sydney at Parliament House on Friday 14th August 2009 to raise money for building a Kindergarten in Nui Dat, South Vietnam.

Guests of honour will be:

Col Joye AM – another singer who was performing alongside Little Pattie at Nui Dat as the Battle of Long Tan began.

I urge anybody interested in supporting our veterans and the very kind and hospitable people of Nui Dat in Vietnam (this is where the Australian Task Force was based during the Vietnam War) to attend.
