Friends of Udon

This is excellent, thanks Lee, I wiil definately be doing something with these people... I have so much time on my hands and nothing to do with it... been thinking about helping the needy or something like that but didnt know how to get involved... thanks again Lee

Who are these kids ? Do they have parents? or in need of some help in life?Like to know more but I am not into the telephone!
By the way, what beautiful ladies serving out the food!
Where's their web site?

Looks like some very worthy causes there.

i will make enquiries Roy and let you know how it pans out... Its one of those things where you give little, eg. time and or kindness and apart from helping the recipients it also has a feel good factor... i fyou get my drift!!!!

www.friendsofudon.com this is their website, ive emailed them so will wait and see if they need help in any way

Isn't that Nobi?? Also the Mrs. and I are in Saudi Arabia but whatever we can do to help......

Had a chat with Thorsten last night about Friends of Udon.

He informs me that an initial meeting of volunteers will be taking place in about 2 weeks time.

Anyone interested please contact Bpu for further details.

05.09.08 We visit the Handicap School and talking with the Schoolmaster, to discuss about a fix day and time every weak (Wednesday 2pm), to visit so many Kids then possible (probable 3 or 4).
So that we can make a list of all the Kids with every own personal live situation, disability and need, so that we can prepare the best help.
We will start next Wednesday, if anyone interest about to go there with us then tell us this untill Tuesday eavening please(come in Mojo´s and ask for Pu or Thorsten, or you send me a mail to thorsten.70@gmx.de ).

Savadee Kap,
a big THANK YOU for Mr. Lee,to open this thread for the friends of Udon.I always
like his friendly,helpfully,very effective way to do things.

Ed,yes it,s Nobi,you seen there.And like this photo you will see Torstem amd Nobi,
and hopefully many friends helping the same at many pictures like these,after doing our best we could.

Bigwavedave,you got my Email?
We need teachers,physiotherapeuts,or people,they just has time to join us and
like to do some work with us.

For now,we are working out two main-projects.Beside these we are helping some kids with school-uniforms,
give something for opening sporthalls for handicaps,we will give watertanks to the old peopl's home next week,
help in Nonghaan a handicap-group to raise mushrooms at their farm,buy some musical instruments for a group of handicap people,etc....

Our mainprojects are
1.)Filtering water in schools for the kids.This is a big project,because there are around 1000 schools in the tschangwat Udon.(Province)
I figured out the situations at some schools,standing for all the other schools.Specially the local schools outside inne bush,are the worst cases for me.Kids are drinking the rainwater in the rainseason.Beside some dead frogs,etc.,this time is the time to get healthy.Because in the dry season,without raining,and this can happen 6-7 month a year,kids drinking the water from the ponds.Here the schools have mostly own small water-ponds with this nice big animals around,pissing and shitting around the water.Some have a small filter,never checked.
So,I got a list of 35 schools for now,they seemed to be the worst cases.
After testing the water,Coli-bacteria I will love you,I will find out the correct way to filter for the different amounts of kids/school.For now,we testing different kinds of water from schools.
If anybody has knowledge of filtering-systems,you are really welcome....
After I find out all these things,cost,etc.,I will let you know about more details.

2.)Building up a REHA-Centrum for the handicap-kids,laying outside somewhere inne bush,can't walk,with many different deseases,nobody takes care about them.
I will talk in a couple of days about this.

Thanks for your attention
Friendly regards
Nobi
