Caroline Nguyễn Ticarro was four years old when her family fled Vietnam on April 29, 1975, along with hundreds of thousands of other Vietnamese. Twenty-three years later to the day, she returned to Vietnam to adopt her twin daughters. It was during that first return trip that Caroline decided she wanted to do something to help.
Caroline will share how her dream and mission expanded from helping those initial babies, to helping children at risk of becoming victims of human trafficking, and their families living in extreme poverty. Caroline constantly looks for new ways to share her labor of love with others around the world and bringing HOPE to the children of Vietnam.
Along the way, Caroline has met some incredible people for whom there is much love and admiration. From each person, each place, and each experience, she has learned a great many lessons.

As a woman founding, operating, and managing Catalyst Foundation on her own, Caroline has had to fight to overcome stigmas and stereotypes on both sides of the world.
As a daughter, sister, wife, mother and boss, Caroline has had to adapt her method over the years but her mission has remained constant while always striving to address the imbalances in the benefits available to both males and females.
With 25 years working in the poorest parts of Vietnam, Caroline will discuss the changes she has seen take place. She will relate several personal stories of triumph and setback. Dealing with the ups and downs of sexism in her home country, Caroline will relate how constantly working to balance the unbalanced rewards not only her, but future generations with hope.
