Building a world where all people can be happy
Through Orphans Against AIDS - Thailand, the grant of $10,000 from the AllPeopleBeHappy foundation established a Center for AIDS orphans in Chiang Mai, Thailand. The mission of the Thai Orphan Center (TOC) is to assist AIDS orphans in maintaining their health, furthering their education, and dealing with life challenges. In 2008, the Center's facility was rented and renovated, and held its opening ceremony on November 23, 2008. The grant further provided for one full time officer, and initial health screening for the AIDS-affected students in the five school district service area. The work of the TOC continues on with local funding. (www.orphansagainstaids.org)
