“An unforgettable experience was being a volunteer for six months in Paksong. It has been 16 years now, but it has brought me so much,” says Mieke.
The Thai Child Development Foundation supports children in rural Thailand for 20 years already. A project done with a lot of love and hard work. Not just by the founders and the Thai staff of the Foundation, but also by the many, many volunteers, international and Thai, who have helped the Foundation grow over the years. They helped with work on the Campus: in the gardens and on the farm, helped with promotion and marketing, helped with making amazing pictures and websites, helped with fundraising, helped with organizing retreats and much more. Without all these people, we would not be where we are now. Bike4kids is one of these amazing projects done on a voluntary basis by Herman and Mieke. We cannot thank them enough.

Herman has already covered 4000 training kilometers and has 16 weeks left until his departure to Hanoi. By sponsoring a kilometer for €5, you help create a better future for children in Thailand. Together, we can make a world of difference, kilometer by kilometer.
Thank you for your participation and support of the journey!
