Charities in 2023
Every festival is dedicated to charities. So there are 6 charities, one per festival.
We prefer to work for children, they are our future and there are many less fortunate children in Asia who deserve a better chance in life.
Bamboo School Thailand
The Bamboo School is a refuge for orphans, children who have been abandoned or who have medical problems. The children are educated here so that they can find a new goal in their lives and get involved in society. Bamboo School Thailand is located in the remote village of Bong-Ti, in Kanchanaburi, a province west of Bangkok on the border of Myanmar and Thailand. The school was built in 2000 and has developed enormously over the years. Starting with just a dormitory, kitchen, classroom and library, the project is now also home to a medical centre with mobile clinics and an ambulance service for Sai Yok Hospital. In total, Bamboo School Thailand now accommodates 27 girls and 23 boys. Without this project, these children would be homeless with no family to support and no access to education. The centre is run entirely by volunteers.
