About  [Edit]

Since we first opened our doors in 1973, we have never turned away a child in need. It's a promise we keep both for ourselves and for the children we have yet to meet. Our special Child Sponsorship Program helps ensure the care of all our current children and allows our Mercy homes to grow with the needs of the community.

All our children have suffered loss, pain, and severe rejection before we found them - many since early infancy. For these children, just having a friend - someone they can write to who cares - means more than most of us can imagine. They love having big brothers and sisters.

Our children always need sponsorship from caring individuals, companies, and organizations. While the actual cost of care for each child is 88,000 baht (approx. US $2,000), we offer four levels, as indicated, to provide more affordable options for everyone who wishes to help.
  Thai Baht US$
Level I (Equivalent cost: Education) 8,000 $250
Level II (Plus housing) 25,000 $780
Level III (Plus food/health care) 60,000 $1,875
Level IV (Total caring) 88,000 $2,750

As a sponsor, you will receive photos, a case history, welcome letter, holiday greetings, and periodic updates from your sponsored child.

The children take great joy in writing to the sponsors and drawing pictures about their life and feelings; and in this way your sponsorship helps build their self-esteem and confidence as an important part of their personal growth.
