Karian People Donations

The donations went well today with the Karian people I visited. It is always rewarding to help good people in need. The set up was more coordinated and repeatable than in the dump (they dressed up in traditional clothes and sang some songs for us etc.) but it was still all for a good and important cause. Donated all the food and other supplies pictured yesterday.

Also donated 2000 baht to the man who helped me and is helping the various groups in the area, Khun Ghosin. Mr. Ghosin works with hundreds of people in need in 10 different groups. He provides food and builds homes, washrooms. My plan is to work with him again next year. We might do some overnight camping at a more distant group location. Where the photography and donation work will continue.

Note* The donation today was with funds from a coworker who told that I could use her $300 CAD anyway I saw fit. 1500 baht went to the dog shelter, $50 CAD to "The People Who Lived Under The Freeway" All the rest went to the Karian people today and to Khun Ghosin to help people in need in the area.
