Christmas came early at our school in Ayutthaya!
A Christmas visit to our school near Ayutthaya, which has been badly hit by serious flooding in this years catastrophe. We gave two more truck loads of donated play-ground equipment, toys, clothing, shoes and brought a little Christmas cheer to our children at the school. most of these goods were donated by a family who are leaving Bangkok to live in Australia and a wonderful lady from Hong Kong who brought lots of new clothing and other goods to Thailand. -- Thank You to Sally Cross & Family and Erica Koh from Hong Kong
They are all from very poor families - Don't be fooled by their smart new uniforms, they have been provided by a well known bank in Thailand. Most of the children have very little else to dress-in when they are not at school. Their parents or guardians are surviving on hand-outs from organizations like ours or poverty-line wages in return for long hard days of work in local factories that survived the floods.
Thank you.
