Most of Thailand is still in a lockdown, causing huge numbers of unemployment, and many people are hungry and in desperate need. With your support, we continue handing out food.
In every report that we write, we are hoping to share some good news regarding the COVID-situation. We feel sad and frustrated that the situation in Thailand is still not looking good. Most of the country is still in a lockdown and the unemployment-rates are high. Many people are struggling to survive, and we keep on fighting to look after them and help everyone through this crisis.
Most vulnerable are hit hard
The families we work with, were already vulnerable and in need before the Corona-crisis started. And now many of them are without a job. They don't have any savings, so no work, means hardly any food to eat. With your help, we will keep on reaching out to the most vulnerable families.
How do we help?
What we do? The most important thing is ensuring that no one goes hungry. We have handed out thousands of food packages, with basic necessities, such as eggs, oil, rice, and more. We visit the needy at home for mental and emotional support as well, during these challenging times. Furthermore, we have handed out thousands of medical supplies, such as facial masks and hand soap. Even in government prisons, there are huge COVID-outbreaks and hardly any face-masks.
You keep us going
Like we said before: sometimes we feel very frustrated with this situation. It seems like there is no end to it. And so many people are struggling to survive. The thing that keep us going though, is you! We are very thankful for the support of many, and couldn't even continue our work without your help. Thank you for standing with us, in these challenging times. Please keep on helping us to reach out to those in need!
