In 1989, Le Ly (pronounced "lay lee") Hayslip returned home to her village in Vietnam. She slept in her family's two-room house for the first time in more than 20 years. She came to speak at a celebration to open the first medical clinic ever built in her village. Le Ly had worked hard to raise the money needed to build this clinic. Since opening in 1989, the Mother's Love Clinic has provided free medical services to thousands of Vietnamese people who cannot afford to pay for health care.
