The Community Project, set up in 2002, was initially based on our organic farm which was established to offer a training programme in more sustainable farming methods to disadvantaged Thai teenagers from the region. The farm continues to go from strength to strength, wideing its training programme and developing new ideas.

After visiting numerous local schools in 2004, we realised the urgent need for school improvements - particularly in health and hygiene. Since then a large number of visiting international schools have contibuted funds and their labour to numerous projects. Some schools cannot raise all the funds themselves and so sponsors can make a contribution of funds, whilst the students provide the labour.
