Reputable Orphanage

[Sakeopete]

Hi All,

I will be moving my family to our condo in Bangkok until we go back to Canada. However I have some very nice Kids stuff including bicycles, trampoline, toys, beds etc I have no room for in bangkok. The wife and I were discussing donating it to an orphanage however I have never visited any. Does anyone have any recommendations of a good orphange I could contact?

Pakkred Orphanage. A few years ago we had a charity football world cup to raise money for them. We didnt give money but actually bought stuff they needed. Heres a link. But its in French. But if you are from Canada you can probably read it.

In Pattaya, Mercy Mission. They do some very good work and always need things for their kids.

Details on the site how to contact them. If you need help getting some stuff there, put a call out on the Pattaya sub-forum, we'll find someone to help.

Father Joe Maier's Human Development Foundation/Mercy Centre, which runs a number of homes and schools.

It's in Bangkok, run by a genuinely good man who lives in the slums amongst the poorest he tries to help.
