Ruth Center

 

Founded in 2008, Ruth Center’s goal is to work with slum communities in Bangkok to improve the quality of life for the elderly and seek long term solutions to their care. In Bangkok alone, there are over 940,000 elderly, many destitute, lonely, without family or anyone to help them.

SILC’s financial donation has allowed the centre to build a communal kitchen for the ‘grandmas’ to make banana chips that they package and sell. Also SILC has donated a much needed kettle and rice cooker for one of the grandmas.

Christian Care Foundation for Children with Disabilities (CCD)

The Christian Care Foundation for Children with Disabilities (CCD) has been providing care and support to abandoned children with disabilities in Thailand regardless of gender, nationality, creed or religion since 1986. 

SILC are long term partners in CCD's work and over the years have helped to provide specialist equipment for individuals such as wheelchairs and cushions, helped to fit out a 'Soft-Play' room at Rainbow House and to sponsor outings for dozens of children with disabilities to places such as Siam Ocean World. As well as all these SILC members have also spent many, many hours volunteering at Rainbow House, supporting the staff there in their ministry to some of the most marginalized individuals in Thailand. In 2014, we paid for their Rainbow Camp, taking 150 disabled kids and their carers to the seaside for 3 days.
