--------------------------------------------------

Concerned about the integrity?
2012-02-24 We emailed the foundation seeking official acknowledgment.

DO NOT SEND MONEY TOT US!!!
simply make a pledge, we will record that and resolve the payment process once we've ratified a process than can be audited.

update: 04/03/2012:
Planning to visit perth WA next week or so and with visa permitting for two (2) Thai helpers from Bangkok, they can help me visit people Perth and collect donations, we can collect Photos of sponsors.

update: 19/03/2012:
The visa process become very problematic, time consuming and expensive but it has been resolved. Now visit Perth with 2 helpers from Bangkok, apart from hosting them to 1 week holiday in Perth we will try to visit as people as possible. We emailed some peopel to let them know we are coming.

update: 26/03/2012:
There was not enough time to plan (re visa problems) then no enough volunteers in Perth to assist visitors from Bangkok, thanks John and others that gave up their time.
We contacted many people about donation the feedback was

a. need more info in the web page fund raiser - thanks every for your feedback - changes made
b. people prefer to donate to local charity.

update 30/03/2012:
the sub committee (people that have tme to donate) agreed that only prospective sponsors are people that have or will visit Bangkok so they have a copnnection to the project

update: 02/04/2012:
Received correspondence from Child Care centre tio acknoweldge the project. We have requested the document be issued on official letter head from head office
Slight set back: my PA (Personal assistant) of 2yrs has now resigned so we have to find another translator

update: 18/04/2012:
Business tour guest from Perth WA to Bangkok has pledged a sizable donation, thanks Tom and has indicated his business skills (construction) will allow him to visit and inspect the proposed project and make recommendations. Tom will return to Bangkok late May.

update: 23/05/2012:
Visit the centre with 4 visitors from Perth W.A. <> Some donated money.
Tom decided to suspend his donation and donate ideas (too many cooks in the kitchen).
Meeting with Foundation officials <> outcome > approve existing construction plans and commence building.
Timeline: Construction: 4 to 6 wks based on weather conditions and admin team work.

Maybe your in the collage or you'll know someone?

The personal empowerment (choice) that you can gain from time with these children is defining.

They are very well behaved, very grateful, very happy-with-in whilst with-out much.

As buddha said to the one that said "I want Happiness"
remove "I" which is ego
remove "want" which is desire
you now have happiness

There is a lot of people that participated, many from West Australia,
they donated; time and/or money, they donated words of wisdom (kind or otherwise)
each and all motivated us along the way; the path is not always clear but we want to achieve

Thanks everyone, for the connection with something that helped someone,
other than oursleves, for people that really do need more than ourselves,
many of us do that often (by choice) and your karma is crystalising your life.

We look forward to project 2013 Bangkok Charity: tba

Please know: Visitors are most welcome, book to a sponsor a lunch. You can book B PAC (Bangkok Personal Assist Concierge) to organise your sponsor day. Some BPAC members donate the service fee to charity otherwise the fee to the BPAC member is their livelyhood.
