Pattaya Orphanage, From Australia and Cambodia to Thailand

My name is Kola (Colin) Seak, I am Cambodian but I was born in a Thailand refugee camp and resided to Australia when I was still a newborn. I am travelling to Thailand in early July 2025, and will be visitng an Orphanage Centre in Pattaya called Pattaya Orphanage (หมู่ที่ 6 384 Sukhumvit Rd, Bang Lamung District, Chon Buri 20150, Thailand).

I want to give back to the Thai community for providing refuge for my family and many Cambodians during the Cambodian genocide in the 70-80s where millions of Cambodians loss their lives. Thailand helped by providing our people with shelter and support in a refugee camp, and without their support I probably wouldn't be here in Australia or alive today to post this message.

In appreciation and gratitude for their support I want give back to the Thai Community to the Thai Children at this orphanage centre. I understand that recent border disputes between Cambodia and Thailand may lead some to question my actions, but at the heart of this effort are children who simply need love and care. Humanity transcends nationalism and political divisons - helping others with unconditional support and love is what truly matters in this world, in my opinion this is what life is truly about (love).

On 18th July 2025, my partner Rose and I will be visiting the orphanage centre which cares for over 200+ children including newborns, toddlers and young children. I will be providing essential supplies and meals, we hope to make a tangible difference in their lives.

If you'd like to contribute, any donations is deeply appreciated. I will kick start the donation process off with $250, and I hope we can reach $750 as the target. Here is an estimated cost of the supplies:

$150 - Special Lunch and Dinner made meals for one day

$22 - 1 box of UHT Milk (48 units)

$15 - 1 box of UHT Soy Milk (60 units)

$11 - 1 box on instant Noodles (40 Units)

$130 - 1 Box of Baby Formula 3.5kg

$50 - 1 Box of Nappies (3 packs x 48 units)

Plus other essential supplies

The funds will go to my personal account and will be used in Thailand to purchase the supplies there and provided physically in person with myself and Rose.

For those that contribute to this cause, I want to say thank you from my heart for showing love and support to this world - we need more giving and less taking in the world.
