Fund Raisers Needed…Every Little Helps

[Translate] It was some time ago when we launched our Gamma Team idea. Sadly, although we have had a couple of ex-volunteers doing what they can we still only have 2 official Gamma Teams; our first Faa gamma, headed by good friend Heather Mackay in Queensland , Australia; and Yai Gamma which is basically my [...]

Khap Khun Mak, Chok Dee :)

[Translate] Due to Annas need to bring forward travel plans for Australia, having secured herself a job, this was Anna and Toms last day with children. And another full day it was. Certainly the morning was busy with the usual work time slot, with more work being done to our “workshop”. As there wasn’t really [...]

Introducing Bpaa Zang

[Translate] As some of you will already know we unfortunately lost House Mother Muay, on Boxing Day, after she decided to leave the job to spend more time with her own family. The stresses and strains of helping to care for 10 children can take their toll and we wish Muay all the best for [...]

Community Work

[Translate] Yesterday was Anna and Toms 4th day with us and it turned out to be a very interesting one. After a phone call the day before, from Khruu Khem of Huay Sai School, 14 kms from our Foundation home, it was arranged that we would visit the school to help the children with English [...]

So Much In One Day

Angela and Alexi Say “See You Again”

[Translate] It was a short visit , but an enjoyable one for all. Last weekend Volunteers, Angela and Alexi, helped out for 3 days and were very popular with all the kids. It was particularly nice that a message shortly after they had left for the Islands down south read ” hope to see you [...]

Funday Sunday

[Translate] A direct antidote to mild exhaustion is overseeing a fun filled day for the kids. Seeing so many smiles and so much laughter blows all the cobwebs away, and today has been such a day. After all the kids had done their bit with the mornings work project of building a shade for the [...]

Australia, Australia

[Translate] We have more than one reason for thanking Australia. Just a few days ago we received a grand total of 795 pounds sterling from The Faa Gamma Fund raising team, headed by our good friend Heather Mackay who had been working hard with the Xmas fund raising. Their target was 1000 AUD and final [...]
