Storm Damaged Go Happiness Centre
Still Giving to Children in Need!
05/10/2019; Despite the heavy rainfall and a big storm on 04/10/2019, the Go Happiness Centre is up and running in less than 24 hours! Go Happiness Founder, Eddie Haworth and Bob the handyman managed to maintain a dry and secure place for a homeless man who's been occupying some space inside one of the storage containers at the Go Happiness Centre. They also set-up tables packed with goodies to hand-out to local Children in Need just one day after the big storm! |
Less than 24 hours since the storm uprooted a massive tree outside the Centre the Go Happiness Volunteers and Staff are delighted to open the gate to conduct...
"Business As Usual"
Plus...the children all received clothing, toys, toiletries, towels, clean bedding, books and
Brand New Underwear!

"Thank You!" to an unnamed lady and her infant child who stopped by the Go Happiness Centre to give some fantastic Home-made Chocolates and some clothing gathered through a collection of goods during a recent family party.
The Gift of Happiness Foundation Volunteers will sort it to make sure it goes directly to children with the greatest need!

In 2005, our Founder, Mr Eddie Haworth (AKA Clown Eckie Corporation) provided more than 500,000-THB ($15,964-USD) as required in legal fees and Government registration fees to set-up the Thai registered charity, Gift of Happiness Foundation. Eddie also provided the main 4x4 off-road capable vehicle needed for the charity to bring essential goods to remote parts of Thailand. He still covers repayments and maintenance costs for the latest 4x4 vehicle, purchased in 2018 at a cost of ฿1.2 million-THB ($38,300-USD). The money for all this came and still comes from Eddie's earnings as a professional Entertainer and since 2018, from Eddie's British state pension.
Eddie is a Volunteer at the Gift of happiness Foundation and he has never received a salary. He is not allowed access to the Charity Bank Account which is governed by the Gift of Happiness Foundation's, all Thai Citizens Board of Trustees.
This is where our 100% pledge comes in.
In 2014, our inspirational gold sponsor, Monroe Consulting Group gave Gift of Happiness Foundation the gift of a brand-new truck and a pledge to provide monthly cash donations to cover the Gift of Happiness Foundation’s core running costs.
100% pledge; The following core running costs are covered by Monroe Consulting Group and the Clown Eckie Corporation; All administration costs - staff salaries - Office/Warehouse rent and utilities - insurance - telephones - Office stationery services and expenses - IT services - Bank charges - Audit, payroll and accountancy fees and Government charity-registration fees.
So it's Thanks to the generous support of Monroe Consulting Group, 100% of the money you give to Gift of Happiness Foundation does go directly to Gift of Happiness Foundation projects and not to overhead or administrative costs.
