We need to gather as much food as possible for the hungry children at Wat Warakit Orphange before 09 September 2011.
Most needed assistance…
1. FOOD!
2. Toiletries, toothpaste, brushes, soap and towels.
3. Educational equipment – pencils, crayons, writing pads, school bags.
4. Children’s underwear from two years up-to teenage – children’s shoes - Other children’s clothing is also useful.
What we will do with your help…
Gift of Happiness Foundation has agreed to try and help these children by collecting more food and essential goods that can be delivered on 09 September when Eddie returns from another hand-over of donations (Mosquito nets & medical supplies) for Mae Tao Clinic in Mae Sot on the 8th September.
Eddie has negotiated a good price for the next load of rice with a trader whose business is situated about 3 kilometres from the orphanage. (1,050 Baht - $35.00 USD per 50 kilos) Other food stuff can be bought in bulk from wholesale suppliers and clothing can also be purchased in bulk at the best possible price from suppliers in China Town, Bangkok. The children need fresh food as well...Eddie can also buy this in the town near to the orphanage (Eggs, chicken, fish, milk).
How you can help…
If you want to supply goods yourself, you can drop-off at our office (Address here: “Contact Page”) or ask Eddie to collect from your home or office in Bangkok. Donations of money can be made by Credit Card/PayPal, - Direct Transfer – Cheque. Please visit our “Donate Page”.
Important note…
Gift of Happiness Foundation has no corporate sponsors and is entirely dependant on donations from the public and friends of the foundation. No one gets paid for their work at the foundation and every penny that you donate will be used for the sole purpose of helping the children that we serve.
