Every week we visit poor communities in the Pattaya area bringing rice, water and fresh vegetables that we have grown in our garden. We help many elederly people who are bed ridden and all of they also need pampers and other hygiene products. Disabled children are a high priority for us as they have very specific needs. Most of these children are unable to eat and are tube fed requiringspecialised formula. Without this they would simply die. When thye need medical attention, we help transport them to doctors and hospitals as parents do not have transprot and the children cannot walk. Every week when we visit we are constantly assessing the needs of these vulnerable groups, ensuring they have their basic needs met.
For many of the house bound people we help each week, we are the only people they see other than their care givers. We are a welcomed distraction from the monotony of each day. We come with enthusiasm, love and give them something to smile about too. Meeting their physical needs is essential and we thank you for providing so we can go!
