Foster visit to Wat Chan

Next to our foster program in Mae La Noi, we also support children in the Wat Chan area.

It has been a long time since we had a foster parent visit to Wat Chan, but now it was finally time again. Katharina, a former volunteer, visited us and of course we couldn’t miss a visit to her foster child. They had a great time together and were able to get to know each other better. Katharina, it was really wonderful that you came by and that you had such a good time together.

If you are interested in sponsoring a child, please contact us at info@thaicare.de or take a look at our website.

Happy Thai New Year 2024!!!

Splish splash, I was taking a bath…”

สวัสดีปีใหม่ไทย

Children in Mae Hae Children‘s Home celebrate graduation!

Time flies: children in our house are graduating from kindergarten, grade three, and grade six. We wish them a happy and fulfilling life.

Need more Bio Sand Filters !

After drawing attention to World Water Day last time, we would like to draw attention to clean water today.

It is not only important that everyone has access to water, but above all that everyone has access to clean water.

Since 2022, we have 2 villages that keep asking for biosand filters. Unfortunately, donations for water filters have been declining for some years now, so that we currently still need 23 biosand filters to place with families in need.

If you need more information, please have a look here or contact us by e-mail.

World Water Day 2024

Two days ago was Water Day 2024

Drinking water is important for everyone. We are pleased to have contributed to the provision of safe drinking water for people on the mountain through the use of our Biosand filter.

Thanks to CAWST as well for the awesome work 🙂

Graduation time :-)

This year we have several children who have successfully completed their schooling.

In the Mae Na Chorn children’s home we were able to celebrate 9 children who completed their 9th grade and thus finished school there. In the Garden Eden student’s home, 4 students successfully completed grade 12.

We hope that they will be successful in whatever path they choose for themselves, be it secondary school, university or vocational training, and that they will always have positive memories of their time with us.

(Some of the students will certainly stay with us or change projects).

We are very proud and happy for you and congratulate you on this success.

Happy International Women’s Day to all women, because you are wonderful.

It’s great to see that our girls in particular are always very successful in competitions!

And the office would not function so well without our women Kung, Noei, Ann, Wanida, and Anne from Germany.

A big thank you to all our house mothers, especially Mibe and Le and of course to Suda for looking after our foster children in Mae La Noi!

Women are so important and should be appreciated more for what they do every day!

Visit from Canada

In mid-February, Noei and Thomas traveled to Mae La Noi together with a sponsor from Canada to visit his foster child. They had a great time together, chatting and getting to know each other better. The foster children are always delighted to have visitors and are very proud

A visit like this is also great for the foster parents because they can see how their child lives and grows up.

And of course, a present for the little one was also a must, which made him very happy

If you are interested in becoming a sponsor, simply send a short email to info@thaicare.de and we will send you all the information you need.

More WASH !!!

Hygiene is always important! That’s why it was time again for a WASH training.

And so the house parents taught the children from the children’s home in Mae Na Chorn and the young people from the Garden Eden student home self-care skills, for example by explaining how to wash their hands, what personal hygiene is and how drinking dirty water can make you ill. This also included making their own tooth powder.

Relax Time

Last week our Garden Eden staff took all the children and also Theresa (a volunteer who has been working with us for a month) to San Kamphaeng Hot Springs. They all enjoyed spending time together and relaxed in the hot water.

It was such a great time!
