1. Who Does the Baan Nokkamin Foundation Help?

The Baan Nokkamin Foundation provides care for children who have lost their families or are at risk due to homelessness or poverty. Operating 11 children’s homes across five provinces in Thailand, the foundation offers:

- A family-like environment with trained foster parents.

- Access to education through 100 scholarships for orphans.

- Support for emotional, physical, and spiritual development.

The foundation also extends its services to the elderly and individuals recovering from drug addiction, making it a vital pillar of community support.

2. What Is EBC’s Role in This Partnership?

EBC Financial Group has partnered with the Baan Nokkamin Foundation to provide essential resources that go beyond temporary aid. Our recent visit focused on delivering daily necessities like food, clothing, and hygiene products while also addressing long-term needs such as education and emotional support.

Key Contributions:

- Supplying educational materials to fuel the children’s aspirations.

- Engaging with the children through meaningful activities like shared meals and games.

- Offering emotional support by listening to their stories and discussing their dreams.

David Barrett, CEO of EBC Financial Group (UK) Ltd., emphasised the importance of this partnership: “We provide real support through meaningful efforts that drive positive change.”

3. Why Family Support Matters

The Baan Nokkamin Foundation operates on the belief that every child deserves the love and stability of a family-like setting. This principle aligns closely with EBC’s values.

During our visit, we saw firsthand how creating a nurturing environment can transform lives. Simple moments—like sharing a meal or hearing about a child’s ambitions—can instil confidence and hope in children who have endured loss and instability.

4. How Does This Fit Into EBC’s Global Mission?

Our partnership with the Baan Nokkamin Foundation is part of EBC Financial Group’s broader commitment to social responsibility. Across the globe, we collaborate with organisations that address critical challenges:

- United Nations Foundation: Supporting malaria prevention efforts in vulnerable communities.

- Shakti Reforestation Association: Empowering marginalised women and children through sustainable initiatives.

- World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts: Promoting youth development as a Friend of the Asia Pacific Region.

Through these initiatives, we aim to create lasting change by addressing both immediate needs and long-term challenges.
