"War does not determine who is right, only who is left."
Unknown
The 2 Sides Project is a 501c3 organization that connects sons and daughters
whose fathers died on opposite sides of the Vietnam/American War.
Our work makes these face-to-face connections possible, and brings peace and healing into today
with the construction of Peace Homes in Vietnam.
OUR IMPACT
2 Sides Meetings: 20 Americans have traveled to Vietnam to meet face-to-face with 100+ Vietnamese sons and daughters. The story of their meetings has been featured in The New York Times, The Washington Post and in an award-winning documentary film that aired on PBS. See the portraits and read their stories.
Peace Homes: When Susan Mitchell Mattera visited the village where her father was killed and saw the state of its houses, she was determined to help. That’s when our work to build Peace Homes began. Now 11 homes have been built for Vietnamese families, and more are on the way. See the Peace Homes and learn how you can build one.
