Hi I am looking for to find some info about an orphanage in Patong. I believe the children are tsunami victims. We had one guest at the hotel I work at go to this place but I am not sure of the name and some of our current hotel guest would like to go.

Thanks

my first guess would have been www.phuketsunshinevillage.org which came up in that google link

there's also http://www.asiacenterfoundation.org/projects.html with a school in Patong

or

I hate to say this but I don't think victims of the tsunami are a tourist attraction, sure if these visitors were here 5 years ago then I can see some value in their wish to visit but if not then better they just make a donation.

I still find it hard to talk sometimes about that period and children are most vunerable so we should think carefully about their feelings at this time of rememberence.

I'm not sure this would help you, but SOS Childrens Village just opened this year in Phuket. According to their website it's a tsunami village. http://www.soschildrensvillages.org.uk/cha...tsunami-village-
