Jason Carter in Vietnam

Jason Carter arrived in Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) today for the third time in the past 6 months, this time with Guards of Metropolis' long-time live sound engineer Alan Stone in tow. On this trip, Jason will be guiding several first time visitors through the southern part of the country to show them the results of their donations to the Village School Foundation, a non-profit organization which builds schools for underprivileged children in Vietnam. The Guards of Metropolis have been working closely over the past year with the organization in raising money for the construction of educational facilities, tuition, and school supplies, all without the support of the Vietnamese government. Read more about the foundation (and see photos of Jason floating down the Mekong River) at the foundation's website.
