The Cabin Foundation’s Christmas Party for underprivileged Thai children
The Cabin Foundation, a non-profit organisation set up by The Cabin Chiang Mai to raise awareness about addiction issues in Thailand, decided to spread some Western holiday cheer to a few of the poor children in Chiang Mai this past Christmas.
The Foundation hosted an afternoon of Christmas carolling with a visit from Santa for the students of Wat Ban Rai School — a charity school run by the Wat Ban Rai Temple, where newly recovering clients from The Cabin’s Sober House teach English on a regular basis as part of their community work.
