My first trip to the Babies Home - I used half day from my work to get some stuff from them.

Lactasoy, Milo, Ovaltine...

Diapers - I heard they needed this most

I didn't stayed long - just left the goodies with the staff and a short tour around

Some pictures of the beautiful kids being adopted by kind hearted people

Went back this time as I've a lunch dates with the children this time.

Some cottons, baby pads, soap, detergent, dishwasing liquid etc - Total about S$200

Main office

Reception counter that will receive your donation.  Receipts will be provided
whether it's cash or items

Some happy children with their foster parents :)

Today, I will be an hour's father to these children.  When lunch commences; they will
shout "Thank you Father for giving us lunch" in thai.  A lunch event like this costs
about S$200 if I remember correctly. 

Me helping to serve food to my little kids and making sure everything is alright

All the kids will want you to feed them, but I spend more time feeding her
as she refuses to eat

Now for desserts and drinks!

I was feeding a boy from the other table and he suddenly spat his food all over me,
I had to clean him up before cleaning myself and continue my fatherly duties thereafter.

These three girls are exceptionally closed to me...lol

Children departing for some classes after lunch

It was a pleasant experience and I wished all the children healthy and well :)

This trip I came to Nonthaburi specially to dedicate merits to some member's and my kid. With this dedication, I hope they will be blessed, healthy and happy 

This Pakkred Babies home is home to 300+ orphans, age from babies to teenagers. Part of them are disabled. Usually before I go I like to ask them what they need and donate based on their requirements. The officer told me they need a total of 220 t-shirts, and some socks for the kids. I bought them at nearby Tesco and brought it down. And I donated a lunch for all the kids in the orphanage; about S$250+.

For those who are keen to do something like that please remember to check with the principal what they need; alot of donors just buy what they want and send without asking and they always end up having too much milk, rice etc. These are perishable and may not be able to be consumed before the expiry date. It will be a waste of your effort and money. Please take note, the rule applies to any charity organisation. Thanks!
