Thanks to the kind support of the ROOT Garden at Thonglor, we get to set up a simple charity stall on certain weekends there. We put out some of the donated items which have been collected over time. These are things which we find would be best converted to funds for use with these communities. Branded Zara blouses or Zanotti shoes and Desiqual handbags are not exactly needed by the kids and women we serve. However, these are more appreciated by trendy teens or office workers. . We find that people are always willing to donate things and we appreciate that. However, with the need to fund activities for the communities, cover operating expenses, take them on excursions, or do maintenance work like repainting or repairing the facilities..etc., we need to translate this stuff into cash..
Hence, we are very thankful for this space where we can showcase all this and hopefully, people come and find what they need and help with a donation. Being that it’s right in the heart of downtown Bangkok it’s been lots of fun connecting with people, especially the expats while also creating an awareness of our Work and projects. Just last weekend, we met folks from Honduras, Belarus, Bulgaria, Mongolia, US, UK, Ireland, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, Italy, Switzeraland, Japan….. It’s such a pleasure to connect with this amazing range of people who all call this Big Mango home! Our next Charity weekend at Root Garden will be on May 21 and 22nd! See you there!
