A story from the Hub

By Liam Davies | Project Leader

Taking my little brother to school

This story was shared by the Hub staff:

The Hub, a Home with a Heart

This morning at the Hub Saidek, one of the youngest homeless children visited the Hub early to have shower and prepare for school. Soon after his older brother arrived on a bicyle to give his little brother a lift to school, despite being homeless himself. Going to school Monday to Friday is difficult enough for normal children, but for those living on the street and struggling with the dangers of sleeping rough, it is a remarkable achievement.

We are so proud of you boys! Thank you for teaching us how strong one can be. We also thankful for the trust you gave and allowing us to be part of your journey.

4,618 youths supported by the Hub in 2022

By Childline Thailand | Volunteer

The Hub provides homeless youths in Bangkok with free showers, food and medical care whilst helping them to progress out of street situations. Overall the project is going well and we are slowly changing the lives of a group of vulnerable teenagers, however we require further funding to make a bigger impact.

Hub Statistics

It's always important for the Hub to monitor and evaluate the work and projects being undertaken by the Childline Thailand team. Staff therefor record stats daily about interactions with children and produce data and statistical analylis to provide the best care and contribute to global information gathering. Data recently published by Childline shows that 4,618 youths were helped by the Hub in 2022, an average of 12 children per day. See more here childlinethailand.org/statistics/

International Day for Street Children (IDSC)

On the 12th of April, the Hub joined organisations around the world to recognise International Day for Street Children: a special day acknowledging the strength and resilience of millions of street children. Homeless youths supported by this project were provided with fun activities at the Hub. Childline also shared stories and social media posts about the events in order to raise awareness,

Surival Bags

A recent Hub initiative has seen the distribution of 131 survival bags. These bags contain essential basic needs supplies including cleaning products and vitamins to help those who sleep rough each night.

Thanks for reading our update! If you have any questions about how we're supporting homeless youths and using funds from this project please email info@childlinethailand.org and follow us on Facebook @childlinethailand and our website www.childlinethailand.org

Please share...

Childline doesn't receive support from the Thai Governernment and relies on donations to run the Hub.
