Join Our Effort to Aid Thai Kids and Elders

Hi! My name is Ning. I was born and raised in Thailand and have lived in the U.S. for the past 12 years with my wonderful husband and our three children — including our adult son and two daughters. This summer, we’re taking a journey back to my roots — not just as a family trip, but as a mission of kindness.

On June 21, we’ll travel to Ban Den Wittaya School in Hod, Chiang Mai, to deliver essential supplies to children and elderly residents in need. My daughter Eva will also join a local soccer match that promotes a drug-free, crime-free lifestyle — using sport to inspire confidence, connection, and hope.

This community is tucked away in the mountains, where families live without land rights, limited electricity, and almost no public support. Many survive day-to-day through fishing and manual labor. Poverty here is not the same as poverty in the U.S. — it’s deeper, more invisible, and far more isolating.

We’re fundraising to bring:

• Rice, noodles, canned fish, and cooking oil

• Notebooks, pens, sports gear, and a school printer

• Size 5 soccer balls and old medals/trophies

• Adult diapers and basic medicine for bedridden elders

• Scholarship funds to help students stay in school

Everything raised will be personally delivered and go directly to the people who need it most.

Even a small donation can make a lasting impact.

Thank you for helping us lift up this village — from us to Hod.
