Projects we support
Second Chance Bangkok
Second Chance Bangkok is a local initiative by residents of Bangkok's largest slum, Klong Toey. We rely on donations of quality second-hand goodsﾠ and sell them to residents of Klong Toey community at affordable prices, or pass them on to those who lack the resources to purchase these essential items themselves.
The shop creates employment for many local residents, in the second hand shop, and through the upcyled project where women with skills in sewing are transforming clothing into beautiful bags and giftwares. click here for more details

Surrey Docks Farm is a working community farm in Rotherhithe that aims to educate local people about where their food comes from and promotes getting active outdoors.
