Personal Stories

Apichart (Pa Kia Nok Village)

My name is Apichart. I am very happy to have a toilet. I just built my house and had not enough money to build a toilet. When ITDF came I was very happy to have people come help us. I got a toilet and I happy for everyone in my village that we have new water supply system. We will have enough water for whole years. Thank you everyone who came help us. Thank you donors who donated to us. God bless you.

A Sor A Yee (Kiw Chumpee Village)

My name is A Sor A Yee. I am a leader of this village. I would like to thank you everyone who came to help us and all donors. I’m happy for my village to have a new water supply system and water tank. Now we have enough water to use whole years. We will do good management. And I also happy for some of my villagers, that they got toilets. Some of them came from Burma and they have no money to build a toilet. Thank you very much and may God bless you everyone.
