The Gift of Happiness Foundation
The Bangkok St. George’s Society has been a major supporter of the Gift of Happiness Foundation over the past few with donations from our very generous members, mostly at the Annual Ball. The Gift of Happiness is a registered charity in Thailand run by unpaid volunteers and their Mission Statement is: ‘To serve individuals and families in the poorest communities in Thailand’.
Gift of Happiness Foundation provides:
Positive sustainable development through educational comedy show productions provided by world class professionals and trainee entertainers. We also produce monthly aid giving projects that provide essential supplies to needy families, schools, medical centers and orphaned children in Thailand and delivered where it's needed most at least once every month of the year. The charity is managed by a team of dedicated volunteers and is not tied to supporting just a few children at only one location, but brings joy to thousands of children in urban and remote locations throughout the country.
Who is helped:
Orphans, vulnerable street children, Bangkok slum dwellers, families living on garbage dumps, AIDS centers and facilities housing physically or mentally challenged children. We regularly serve medical centers, crisis centers for abused women, communities of migrant worker families and people displaced by civil war who live in refugee camps.
What we actually give:
The charity gives children and their family’s basic necessities like clothing, bedding,medical supplies, educational equipment, toys, agricultural tools and tons more useful goods. The children always get to see a top class professional comedy show to leave them with a fantastic memory that no-one can ever steal from them!
