You buy new educational supplies, underwear and uniforms from Gift of Happiness
We give them all directly to children in need.
The children we serve are very poor, but there are “poor kids” and “POOR KIDS”.
Most children we support are educated and live on dirt floors, under thatched roofs with woven rattan walls. The children wear cast-off clothes and old shorts for underwear, most of which has deteriorated to little more than rags and their learning centers are very sparsely equipped.
Are the kids happy? Yes, they generally are, but they have no sense of community, no school spirit, no real sense that they belong to anything, which inhibits their ability to learn and positively develop their own social interactions. It is quite amazing to see how a simple sports type uniform, some nice cotton underwear and a very basic educational set can change their entire outlook on life as soon as they receive our gifts

Educational supplies for children who really appreciate it!
Gift of Happiness Foundation supplies hundreds of items to help poor children study with the same basic equipment as more privileged children in better developed environments.
This basic educational pack offers these children enough materials to complete one term of study and the exams needed to get them to the next stage of education. |
New uniforms for children in need
Uniforms give poor children dignity and self confidence anywhere they gather together.
Quote from a Go-Happiness Field Trip Volunteer; Gift of Happiness Foundation provides children with uniforms that are practical, hard wearing and easy to keep clean and dry in difficult living conditions.
These are not the regular school uniforms like the ones worn by children at most government schools in Thailand. That's because parents or guardians don't have washing machines or even running water, except for the local stream. |
