Report from Foundation Forlife
July - September 2008
1. LIVEABLE HOME
This project is carried out in co-operation with the Baan Chiwit Mai, so as to help educate families in the Klong Toey Slum Community in healthy, clean living and looking after their homes. Volunteers help with the physical cleaning, simple and practical interior designing and to lift the flooring up, repairing of roofs, painting the walls, upgrade the kitchen, toilets and to change broken down furniture as needed, so as to be a model home for the neighbourhood. At the moment, the needs of the 3 rd family are being evaluated and educated on how to upkeep the home after renovations are done.
The home has been renovated to make it more tidy and
spacious, so that it can be model for the neighbours |
2. E XPANSION OF CENTRES TO “MOULD THE N EXT GENERATION ” AND FOLLOW - UP IN THE NORTHERN REGION
The Foundation surveyed the local communities in the Ampur Mae Chan, Chiangrai so as to start new centres to “Mould the NeXt Generation” for girls coming from the lowlands and the hilltribes, in collaboration with the Sahardsueksa School. It is in the pioneering stages of its activities with emphasis on wholistic development in areas of the physical, mental and social. The Foundation took the opportunity to visit the government office in the Ampur Sameong, so that together with the local volunteers, we are better able to understand and address the problems faced by local Karen youths there.
3. “BOOK LOVERS ” PROJECT
The Foundation had a part in giving educational sponsorship for needy families on a case by case basis. At the same time, English language books were donated to the library of Sahardsueksa School in Chiangrai, together with the distribution of uniforms for activities to the girls from the hilltribes.
4. PROJECT “MOULDING THE NEXT GENERATION ”
There are 18 activity centres spread around Bangkok and the provinces that run weekly programs for the young people so that they may wisely use their time in wholistic development throughout the school term.
The Foundation is grateful to all who help support our programs
so that sustainable development may be realised
May the Lord bless you and your family with
true happiness and prosperity
