As part of this project, we are collaborating with a variety of organizations, both government and non-government. We have many trainings planned over the Thai school holidays in April and May.
In April, we are excited to be working with Prosperous Youth Foundation to provide training to caregivers at the children's homes they work with, as well as training their day care staff in Positive Discipline Techniques.
We have also partnered with Days for Girls and pledged to distribute 100 Sanitary Kits to girls in rural villages in Northern Thailand. Also in April, we will be making a trip to a remote village on the Burma-Thailand village to distribute kits and also teach our Healthy Relationships curriculum.
Our partnership with the Thailand Department of Social Welfare is still going strong and we will be sponsoring training for both foster parents and foster children in April and May. In addition, we will be creating promotional video materials for them to use in their campaign to place every child currently in a government orphanage into a safe family home.
We have also gotten requests from other NGOs within our foundation to provide the Child Empowerment Program to the children in their projects.
Thanks to your generous donations, we anticipate being able to double our impact as compared with 2017!
In April and May, our project director, Heather, will be in the US speaking about Jojo's Sanctuary and the work we do. She will be in Minnesota, Austin, Los Angeles and Seattle. If you are interested in attending fundraisers in these locations or would like to meet Heather to hear more about Jojo's Sanctuary, please contact us at jojos@thaiconnections.org.
