Hey Fam, ❤️

 

I will be heading home to the land of smiles (Thailand) early January, where I will embark on a new journey.

 

I am volunteering to help the beautiful children who are growing up in the poorest region of Thailand. Through the art of Muay Thai they are being provided with a ‘fighting chance’ to combat the hardships which they face in growing up in such a difficult environment.

 

Wor. Watthana Muay Thai Gym owned by Canadian born Frances and Thai local, Boom is completely operating off donations in order to help these amazing kids develop the tools neccessary to survive. Check out the video that I linked below to learn more about their struggle.

'Children born into a Thai village are in a fight from the moment they enter the world. They are fighting fate- a merciless opponent that offers a childhood of drugs, alcohol, gang violence, and even rape, the same fate who’s defeated generation after generation before them. Very few children have the strength to defy the odds, but even once they make it to adulthood, they are dealt with a various set of challenges: menial employment or a life of crime. This is what Frances and Boom set to change. Wor. Watthana sets to help these at-risk youth change the course of their path.'  

Wor. Watthana Muay Thai Gym provides safe space for kids to learn Muay Thai and channel their energy into something positive.

 

 

 

100% of the donations from this campaign will go towards the kids.

 

I am so grateful for all your support, and I hope my work at the gym will leave a long and lasting impacts on the lives of the children who are fighting the greatest battle of all.

 

Thank you so much!
