As I type this current update about the formula program, we are currently entering our 3rd and most serious COVID wave to date. How this will end up affecting employment of people in our area is unkwnown. Thailand was about ready to open its doors to more tourism which would allow many local people to return to work, but that looks unlikely now. We are hopeful that future vaccinations will eventually allow Thailand to open again to tourism and allow production to return to normal levels in manufacturing. Until then, we will continue working with our health network to locate COVID-impacted families in need of formula and we will be following up with some of those we haven't heard from in awhile to make sure they are able to provide for their families. 100% of all donations to this program are going directly to purchasing infant formula and food for these families. All administrative expenses supporting this initiative are being covered by a separate budget. Thank you so much for your generosity in recent months!
