Helping Children from Ex-Sex workers in Thailand

Hallo and greetings from Thailand!

We are enjoying the school holidays here and our Nursery Staff is very busy looking after the currently fifteen(!) children that we have at Tamar right now. They keep them busy – from 1 year to 13 years old – you can imagine there is always a lot going on. But not matter the age – all the kids enjoyed a trip that we did on the 20^th of October to visit the Monster Aquarium and Zoo in Pattaya. You can see in the pictures, the kids and the Staff enjoyed the snakes, fishes, and other animals. It only seems that some of the kids were a little bit afraid of the baby goats Anyway, it was a wonderful day out and when we returned to Tamar Nursery, we got ice-creams for everyone to round up the day.

Now the children have a final week of holidays and then it is back to school for them, and the nursery will again be a lot quieter – in the moment we only have three kids that are not in school yet. But if everything works out there, we might get another 5 months old baby in the next week. The mother is a 17-year-old girl that worked in the bars here in Pattaya and is thinking about coming with the baby to us at Tamar – we hope that it works out and that the two of them are willing to leave the life in the bars behind and come out.

Thank you for your continued support of the children at Tamar. Without your help we could not take the kids on these outings and could not just take mothers with newborn children in and provide for the babies. Your generosity makes it possible! Thank you!

The Tamar Family
