children’s home planned in khao takiab
hua hin, THAILAND AWOL has covered news of the charitable efforts made by both Thai and foreign people in the area before, and this week sees yet another initiative to help the needy of the area, as the Power Of Love Church has announced its ambitious plan to build a children’s home to help the most disadvantaged youngsters from this region. There are various challenges facing these children, whether they have lost parents or other family members through to a lack of food, medical care, adequate housing, sanitation, and very importantly an education aimed at pulling them out of poverty or subsistence living. Some of them are at risk of falling prey to dangerous people due to pressures on their parents’ or guardians’ financial needs. The aim is to provide for an initial 25 children so as to keep it personal. The home will be structured and run as a family with a Thai couple serving as foster Mom and foster Dad. Older children, in addition to regular school, will be given the opportunity to learn a trade from a variety of possibilities connected to the employment opportunities of the future in Thailand. Thanks to some donations, initial payment has been made on a plot of land ideally located in the centre of Khao Takiab. The Power of Love Church now hopes for further donations so as to begin construction of the home as soon as possible. More information can be found on the church’s Facebook page at - Power of Love Church (Hua Hin) Children’s home soon to be built in Kao Takiab, Hua Hin,. The Church was founded in 2010 and holds Sunday services, which are currently held in a reception hall at the Hua Hin Hilton Hotel, as well as regularly distributing food and other essentials to the poorest families in the area. You can find contact information for the Power Of Love Church in their advert on page 22.
