About Us

Legacies of War, a project of NEO Philanthropy raises awareness about the history of the Vietnam War-era bombing in Laos and advocates for the clearance of unexploded bombs, provides space for healing the wounds of war, and creates greater hope for a future of peace. The charity provides life-saving education and advocacy around the lasting effects of the 1964-1973 U.S. secret air war, which dropped approximately two million tons of ordnance in Laos and about 80 million unexploded bomblets remain a critical threat to the lives of Lao people and their ability to safely farm their land.
