2008 EDUCATION PROJECT
|
Sister Joan’s annual Education Project benefits children and young adults in Klong Toey and other slum communities in Bangkok who come from a financially disadvantaged background, providing the ability for them to attend school or university. Without this assistance, it is unlikely they would be able to gain an education.
The beneficiaries of the Education Project are Thai students between the ages of 3 (starting pre-school) and 22 (attending university) who reside in Klong Toey and other slum communities in Bangkok. The majority of the students assisted through the Education Project are at primary or lower secondary school.
The 2008 Education Project conducted in April and May 2008 provided school uniforms, shoes, socks and bags for over 600 underprivileged Thai students.
