Cows from BBQs

One of the most worthy causes in Viet Nam is aimed at helping victims of agent orange.

In sourcing our BBQs from Viet Nam we are conscious of the need to give back somehow. At first we considered helping the local community who have pulled together their collective resource to manufacture sufficient numbers for us…..and we may yet see what contribution we can make on our next visit.

In the meantime we have decided to donate 5% sales to victims via The Vietnamese Victims of Agent Orange, based in Hobart. We are dealing with Bruce Montgomery from the Trust. The current initiative is to generate funds to be able to buy 75 cows for Agent Orange victims in Phong Dien district north of Hue in central Viet Nam.

The irony of generating money from the sale of BBQs to buy cows has not gone unnoticed.

The table top BBQ breaks new ground…bringing the blokes and the ladies together, designed to be the centre of attention on the table.
