Description:
Volunteer at this charity for single mothers in Chiangmai. This is a temporary home for unemployed single mothers with very young children and a shelter for unmarried pregnant young women prior to the birth of their child. Women who come to the charity have no consistent means of support, no boyfriend or husband actively present in their lives and have a desire to make life changes.
Highlights:
The charity accepts single women in desperate situations and moves them toward self sufficiency. The women learn their own value and develop self confidence. They are taught to see their situations in new ways, encouraged to solve their own problems, and strengthened to shape their own destinies. The women are taught to properly care for and support their children in such a way that will have a long term effect on their futures. Volunteers can teach English or teach vocational skills such as sewing, cooking, crafts, baking or jewelry making.
