In order to provide immediate relieve for children who have lost members of their families, their home or any kind of income we have just started a new project. We are financially helping those families who are in the

In order to achieve these goals have to raise sufficient funds. Early estimates indicate that we will need to raise in the region of 25,000,000 Thai Baht, which is around 500,000 Euro for our Children's Village. As
members of Lions International we guarantee that every Penny raised will be used to support this Children's Village project. Donations how ever large or small will be deeply appreciated.
