The "May Ball", a formal
dinner dance function, will be held in aid of Le Refuge. This charity
is a special home that houses, educates, councils and nurtures young
girls who have been sexually abused in their own homes. The girls
range in age from three to twelve years old. At present there are
thirteen girls in the home, but by May it will have grown to twenty-eight
and they are in desperate need of another vehicle. We are hoping
to raise enough money to assist them in their incredible effort
in giving these children a second chance for a happy and healthy
life. Because of the nature of the pain that these children have
suffered, the Thai government gives only very little recognition
to the home in the way of funds, and having visited the home ourselves
we feel that the international community of Chiang Mai would do
well to support the amazing work that is being done for these children.
In view of the above, we would be most appreciative if you could
see your way to helping us to buy tickets for the Ball. We would
also like to place on record that any donation received would be
much appreciated and we would welcome the opportunity to thank doners
personally at our Banquet Ceremony.
Please be assured of our appreciation for your assistance in our
effort to ensure that Le Refuge is adequately prepared for the growth
of their home. The children from Le Refuge will be attending our
Banquet in order to have the opportunity to show their personal
appreciation for all donations made.
