The Manorom Project Appeal
| We have just launched our Manorom Project Appeal to open a daycare centre and vocational training centre in Manorom Province which is 195km North of Bangkok. CCD have been given use of the building by a charity called OMF who previously used it as a leprosy hospital. Thankfully, Leprosy is now scarce in Thailand so the hospital is no longer needed. |
 |
| We have exciting plans for the hospital building. We are planning to make is into a daycare centre to help hundreds of unreached disabled children in Manorom Province. These children will be able to receive the love and attention that they need; they will have specialist care, physiotherapy, occupational assessments and home visits to improve their standard of life at home, and we will also provide support networks for their parents. We also want to make one floor into a vocational training centre to equip disabled young people with transferable skills that they can use to get employment and gain independence. |
 |
The great news is that we already have the land and the building, we just need to raise £45,000 to refurbish and renovate the facilities, as well as carrying out research to identify the needs in the local area. This money also includes paying staff for 18 months to get the project off the ground.
Please give generously to this project - we will be improving the lives of hundreds of unreached children in the Northern State of Manorom.

Chilli for Charity
 |
Our new fundraising initiative called Chilli for Charity is coming at the end of January 08.
The idea is that you cook a delicious Thai meal for your friends and family, and then ask them to donate the money that they would have spent eating out at a Thai Restaurant. Thai food is renowned for being delicious, but also for being incredibly spicey - we are daring you to take on as much chilli as you can handle, in the name of charity! |
We will send you a Chilli for Charity fundraising pack which includes a recipe booklet and ideas for making the perfect evening, as well as a quiz on Thailand which you can play with your guests!
To order your pack (which will arrive at the end of January / beginning of Feb), please email us now! |

Meanwhile Jennifer, his wife, did a 48-hour fast on the 16th and 17th May, again to raise money! She went without food to raise money, and so far many people seem to be willing to sponsor her! Please give generously for her bravery! Visit her Just Giving page for more information.
Peter and Jennifer are also holding a BBQ and a table top sale to raise money before they go out to CCD this Summer. |
Would you consider doing some fundraising in aid of For Life? If so, here are some ideas: You could do a sponsored event, hold a cake sale, put on a dinner evening, hold a concert in aid of For Life, and many other things! You can request leaflets, posters, and a copy of our promotional video and 'Thank You' video to help you.
