We have been looking at the Child's Dream website. This Swiss Charity works with children and schools in Thailand, Burma, Laos and Cambodia. From their mission statement "Our primary objective is to support projects that provide relief and aid to orphans or children living in poverty . . . . . unconditional means that these projects do not attach any conditions to their support (e.g. conversion of religion) and that children's nationality, gender, religion, ethnic affiliation, etc. is not a selection criteria. "In 2005 Child's Dream went to Hle Bee School and were able to improve sanitation, extend the existing building and build a new class room. This was urgently needed as the original 20 pupils in 1999 had grown to 80. The roll in September 2006 was 145.
The Child's Dream home page is at: http://www.childsdream.org/en/default.asp
and the Gallery of pictures is at:

To find the write-up of the project, select projects in the left hand window of their site, and in the completed projects list that comes up on the right hand side, select Hle Bee School.
Great work Daniel and Marc, maybe see you in Chiang Mai if you are about.
