A Meaningful Visit to Our Refugee School 🤝

We were deeply honoured to welcome representatives from the United Nations, alongside a Thai actor, to visit our refugee school and spend time with our community.

This visit was an important opportunity to better understand the current realities faced by refugee families, exchange perspectives, and reflect on similarities and differences in refugee experiences across the region.

We are truly grateful for the time, attention, and genuine interest shown to our students, teachers, and community. Listening, learning, and raising awareness are meaningful steps toward greater understanding and support.

January means back to school !

This January, CWO refugee school has reopened its doors.
For the children, it means notebooks, uniforms, laughter, and a safe place to learn again.
For us, it also means starting the year with renewed hope … and real challenges.

Like many small refugee schools, we are currently struggling to cover basic costs.
Education does not stop, but keeping it running requires support.

If you would like to help, here are a few meaningful ways to support the school:
✨ Sponsor a Child - help cover school materials and education
🍽️ Sponsor a Lunch - ensure children receive a daily meal
🏊 Sponsor an Excursion - moments of joy like a swimming pool day
🏫 Sponsor the School Rental - and utilities and electricity that keep the school open

Every contribution, big or small, helps us keep this school alive and welcoming for the children.
If you’d like more information, feel free to message us.

Thank you for supporting refugee education and being part of this journey 🤍
