Kristina is partnering with Catalyst Foundation, a non-profit working to improve the lives of orphaned, abandoned and homeless children in Vietnam through educational scholarship programs and direct relief efforts and to build cultural awareness and enrich the lives of children adopted from Vietnam. She will be creating new camp programming for Catalyst Foundation’s annual Vietnam Culture Camps held this year at St. Olaf College and Rowan University. She will also be creating a Mentorship Program for adopted Vietnamese youth to promote interpersonal mentor-mentee relationships and encourage young Vietnamese adoptees, ages 10 to 17, in lives of commitment, civic engagement and cultural appreciation.
