Students from St. Andrews International School presented a number of essential items needed for children between the ages of 0-6 early this week. The orphanage, which contained 250 children, had to be evacuated in an emergency situation in Bangkok and had to be relocated to Banglamung.

Pattaya Flood Relief has identified the orphanage as a key project in which to help. The students represented the Flood Relief Fund which has donated 20 water filters, 250 blankets, powdered milk, clothing, rice, toothpaste and soap to the orphanage.

Student Sangjin Lee said, “It was great to see that the money the people of Pattaya are raising is going to a very worthwhile cause. The centre is low on many basics and need all the help they can get. The children really need a lot of help and if people can donate as much as possible – that would be great.”

If anyone would like to help the orphanage by donating clothes for children 0-6, toothpaste, rice and milk then please contact Andy Emery on [email protected]
