Dear Supporters and Friends,
This Thanksgiving, we have the joy of sharing an inspiring occasion made possible by your incredible support. Thanks to our generous sponsors, we orchestrated a two-day event that brought 80 children from the Omkoi Mountains to the city for an unforgettable experience.
A Journey of Joy:
The festivities commenced with a tour and lunch at the prestigious Chiang Mai University, opening up a world of possibilities for these young minds. For each child, the visit to the movie theater was a groundbreaking moment, marking their inaugural cinematic experience filled with the joy of popcorn and shared laughter. As they explored the marvels of the Science Museum and strolled through the botanical gardens, the enchantment of these new experiences away from the mountain they call home added a touch of magic to their journey of firsts.
To ensure the children's days were filled with nourishment and warmth, we organized catered breakfasts, lunches, and dinners. The atmosphere was vibrant, filled with the laughter and joy of children discovering new horizons.
A Sneak Peek:
This Thanksgiving event holds a special place in our hearts, and we extend our heartfelt thanks to Erin R, Steve W, Eileen K, Coach Chris, Keddy A, John Y, Fai C, and Thawicha S. With only three weeks' notice, they made this event possible, showcasing the true power of collaboration and shared purpose.
Meanwhile, in the backdrop of this heartwarming event, we are excited to share that the construction of a commercial-style kitchen and bathroom for the children's home on the mountaintop is currently in progress. All previous donations since the beginning of the summer have been ear marked for this. Even more thrilling, we are delighted to announce that this project has been fully funded, thanks to your unwavering support. This accomplishment not only brings joy to the hearts of these children but also marks the realization of all our 2023 ambitions and goals. It stands as a shining testament to our collective commitment to creating a better future for these children.
As we scroll through the photos below, let's celebrate the moments of pure joy and discovery that your support has brought to these children. The kitchen and bathroom project, though a background mention, represents the ongoing commitment to improving their living conditions and ensuring a brighter future.
Thank you for being an integral part of this incredible journey. Together, we are making dreams come true and creating lasting memories for these children, instilling in them the belief that they can achieve anything.
With heartfelt gratitude,
Jimmy & Fai
