Gift of Happiness Foundation and the South African Embassy, Bangkok give even more happiness to the survivors of abuse who are resident at one of Bangkok's safe houses for women and children. The S/A Embassy and GoHF have jointly named this project "Nelson Mandela Happiness Day" in further recognition of his great support of oppressed and abused people throughout his lifetime. |

This is how children respond to the Go Happiness/Clown Eckie Big Fat Buffoonery Show!
(We don't show pictures of the residents at safe houses)
This is the second visit by the S/A Embassy and GoHF in the last few weeks, the first one being in recognition of International Nelson Mandela Day 18 July 2016.
During that visit it was suggested by the South African Embassy Chargé d'affaires, Mr Deon Seals, to Eddie Haworth, that we return as soon as possible to give the residents some much needed happiness in the form of Clown Eckie's "Big Fat Buffoonery Show". We also plan to give the women and children some more essential clothing, baby-wear and dried food supplies sponsored by Eurofood, BKK, enough to last several months!
