More Information About this Project
Project Needs and Beneficiaries
We will work with children and youths throughout Thailand to build their self-esteem. Most are from poor or broken families. There will be on-going developmental and leadership training in partnership with the local churches and schools. As local volunteers interact weekly with the youths, any needy situation will be brought forth and dealt with in terms of relief work, scholarships or vocational training. Youths are being trained to take up leadership in local communities.
Activities
We provide training/counseling to local volunteers on topics relating to children/youth development. Also training to young leaders from 10 yrs onwards to help run the programs, even to give peer group counseling. To date we have 250 young leaders.

Project Message
A truly amazing program! My youths have greatly matured and are a great help to me, especially after the leadership camps. Many have left school but are back as volunteers, helping in one way or other
