BAAN SAAN RAK TODAY
Every semester BSR´s family have changes in our alignment, and this time we have to celebrate the arrival of three new members, who have come to our home at the end of 2018.
Nowadays, BSR is the home of 39 children between 6 and 22 years old, shaping a beautiful family of brothers and sisters who care, teach and love each other.
Most of this 39 children lives in BSR home, located in Maelao 30 kms south of Chiang Rai, but some others have had to leaved away to continue their studies, keeping under care and custody of BSR despite the distance.
Thanks to this care, all children have a family and all their basic needs covered thanks to the absolute commitment of Jit, mother and model for all of them, but also thanks to sponsors and volunteers who help supporting us with donations for their studies, food, clothes and basic needs.
Baan Saan Rak or House of Love (translated literally from Thai Language) keeps full children custody and protection, giving them love, support and the basic tools to re build their self-esteem and trustfulness, but also to believe and build their own future, fostering each best skills, boosting their social integration through giving them the same opportunities than any other child.
At this moment there is 25 children living in our home located in Maelao, attending to different public schools around BSR from Monday to Friday. Into them, the 13 boys and 12 girls, learn, share and laugh, building their future along with their class mates.
The rest 14 children live away of BSR foster home. Phayao, Bangkok, Chiang Rai or Chiang Mai, has become their new homes because they had to migrate and move on, following the Universities or High School that offered their chosen studies specializations.
Anyway, they visit us very often because this will always be their home and family.
