Talking with Tien Phong, Axe said that he used to be a homeless person in New Zealand. Due to some problems related to the visa, he lost his job, could not afford to pay for rent and had to wander. On one evening, Axe pushed to rescue a boy who was beaten by 5 thugs. He had a head injury but was then “adopted” by the boy’s family.

Axe moved to Hanoi and became an English teacher with a stable salary. Hence, he decided to establish a voluntary group to share difficulties with the homeless.

Mrs. Yen, a homeless person on Hai Ba Trung Street said “I have made a living by collecting calluses for decades. My health has recently become poor, so I cannot work much. I always look forward to every Thursday evening to be given food from volunteers”.

“I hope that the charitable activities will be further replicated”, Axe said, adding that although the language barrier sometimes makes it difficult for him to talk to the homeless, he is always willing to give a hand whenever they need.
