Liên Đoàn Nguồn Sống Endowment
A permanent endowment supporting the next generation of Catholic leaders
About Us
The Liên Đoàn Nguồn Sống Endowment was established to form and support the next generation of Catholic leaders—young men and women who strive to live their faith faithfully while pursuing higher education with purpose.
Rooted in the mission of Thiếu Nhi Thánh Thể, this Endowment is more than a financial initiative—it is a commitment to accompany our youth as they grow in faith, knowledge, and service to others.
This initiative was made possible through the generous founding contribution of the Vietnamese Catholic Student Association (VCSA), a community deeply committed to faith formation, leadership, and service. Their support laid the foundation for a permanent fund designed to serve generations to come.
In partnership with Liên Đoàn Nguồn Sống, the Endowment continues a shared mission: to accompany youth in their spiritual and personal growth, forming individuals who live with integrity, purpose, and a deep love for Christ.
