We're looking for people of all nationalities with time available to assist elderly expats in need, especially those with special capabilities such as willingness to transport other visitors, musical, artistic or craft skills, organizational and problem solving abilities, previous experience in working with the elderly or foreign language ability.

My wife and I will try to attend to find out more. I'll need to look into the map to see where Raintree Center is.

There's a map on the bottom of the "home" page of the CM Community Church. Raintree Center is in their office building, a three story, white building that faces Charoen Muang Rd. The entry is from the parking lot behind the office building. Enter the parking lot from Charoenrat Rd -- Riverside Restaurant is on this road.
