Hand to Hand Foundation serves children and families in Pattaya, Thailand through education, community outreach, and compassionate care, bringing hope and opportunity to those who need it most. These are the children that are enrolled in our scholarship program and attend school during the week. Most of them were on our Pre-School before they went to school. Scholarship
We currently have 45 children in our scholarship program, all of whom are fully supported by sponsors. Some of these children have not been to school for several years due to lack of finances. Family Care
Every Friday we reach out to the most needy people that live in the slums. We currently visit 31 families who live in a number of different slums. We provide food packages which consist of 2kg rice, two packets of noodles, cooking oil, fish oil, two tins of fish and a bar of soap. We also provide clothing and medicine when required. Pre-School
Hand to Hand’s pre-school is open every Monday to Friday from 8 am to 4 pm and we currently have over 50 children enrolled. The school is free and provides food, education, clothing and medical needs for the students. Many of the children that attend spend more time at the centre than they do at home in the slums. Prison
We visit the prisons three times per week giving food and water to all the inmates. Many of these are illegal immigrants from neighbouring countries. We supply them with milk, medication, diapers and special treats. Clothing is also given to these people as well as assistance with minor medical needs. Hospital
Every week we visit the children's ward in the local government hospital where we visit a number of patients. We provide for their needs and pray for the children. We give out presents, diapers, colouring books, crayons and much more! The Crossing
The Crossing is a youth drop-in center and skate park currently located at Duck Square, behind Big C Pattaya Tai. The Crossing provides an alcohol and drug free place for youth to come and hang out. There is much more available than just skating you can also play pool, listen to music, play the Nintendo Wii or learn a musical instrument.
