One of the ways that The Family Connection Foundation is helping families in Thailand has been to meet needs during Covid through direct aid. Thailand relies on tourism for about 20% of it's GDP and exports of good and services for about 60% of GDP. It goes without saying that a pandemic that shuts down tourism and factories has caused substantial economic hardship for families as some or all of household income is lost. Our direct aid food program, Bread For Life, has been able to partner with the local government to provide food and supplies to thousands of families in need. Another one of our programs will be partnering with the Mental Health Crisis Assessment & Treatment Team from their local Department of Health to conduct mental health evaluations and provided food and supplies to 75 families who lost loved ones to Covid-19. They made their first visit this week to a mother who lost both her husband and parents to Covid. We thank you for your partnership as you enable us to serve families in Thailand!
