What would you do when you travel to Saigon? Travel to Cu Chi,go to museums, walking and discovery Saigon? Why you don't go to... orphanages.
When Hollywood superstars Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie went to Vietnam, they went to the Tam Binh orphanage in Ho Chi Minh City. And...they had adopted Pax Thien Jolie from Tam Binh Orphanage.

There are some Orphanages in Saigon:
Bà Chiểu Home
Add: 149/1 Nguyen Van Dau, Ward 11, Binh Thanh Dist, HCMC
Tel: (+84). 85.150.556
The Ba Chieu Home for disadvantaged and homeless girls in Ho Chi Minh City was set up in May 1996 with initial funding from the New Zealand Embassy. It is administered by the Women’s Charity Association of Ho Chi Minh City, a voluntary, non-governmental organisation set up in 1989 under licence from the HCMC People's Committee. After the first two years, the Embassy could no longer fund operating costs, so I have organised fundraising and private donations mainly from New Zealanders and New Zealand businesses with a Vietnamese connection ever since.

Cu Chi Disable children education center (orange agent affected children)
The children at the Cu Chi Disable children education center are victims of Agent Orange, they are all disabled, abandoned and homeless. Agent Orange afflicts people in different ways from mental to physical disabilities and in some cases both at the same time. Some of the children at Cu Chi Disable children education center are so disabled that they can’t even talk, but they can all smile, and when you smile at them they smile back!
