Mission Statement
Kids Home is a Foundation that takes care of over 1,000 children in Thailand, mostly migrants on construction sites. We know them one by one and provide critical support to make sure they can access education, healthcare and live in a safe environment.
About This Cause
Kids Home is a Thai foundation that provides access to essential services to vulnerable children particularly migrants from construction sector. We are the leading foundation working with communities from the construction sector. We conduct our work in partnership with construction companies and local government entities. 100% of the donations we receive are spent on our projects in northern Thailand. We have no office or employees abroad - the few administrative costs being entirely covered by our Board Members. There are more than 3.5 million migrants living in Thailand. 60.000 of them are children from the construction sector. These children live in basic iron shelters in slum-like conditions. Their precarious position, often temporary, places them in especially vulnerable situations and environments. We provide critical support to children in need, making sure they have access to education, healthcare and a safe environment. The programs and sessions are tailored to the specific needs of the communities and families. Based on the needs of migrant communities in Chiang Mai we have developed a curriculum which follows the Thai national education standards, supports four keys areas of child development: physical, social and emotional, linguistic, and cognitive. The teachers are trained to develop creative and adaptable activities to provide essential knowledge and life skills. The Foundation aims to prepare children for school and to encourage their attendance. Through structured and stimulating activities, the team prevents drop-out, child labor and trafficking.
