EBC Financial Group Enriches Lives of Orphans Through CSR Initiative at Baan Hathairak in Bangkok, Thailand

(Bangkok, Thailand, 28 October 2024) EBC Financial Group (EBC) continues to uphold its commitment to community support and social responsibility with its latest Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative at Baan Hathairak Orphanage in Thailand. Late last month, EBC employees dedicated their time and resources to providing much-needed support for 36 orphaned children, reinforcing the company’s mission to make a positive impact across marginalised and vulnerable communities worldwide.

The day-long event, saw seven EBC employees distributing essential supplies, offering financial contributions to sustain the orphanage’s ongoing operations, and engaging with the children through interactive activities. The day culminated in a shared meal with the orphans and staff, providing both emotional and material support. This initiative is part of EBC’s broader strategy to actively contribute to the well-being of communities in Thailand and globally, aligning with the company’s values of fairness, integrity, and responsibility.

A Deeper Connection to Community Empowerment

EBC’s participation in the Baan Hathairak initiative reflects the company’s ongoing commitment to creating meaningful change in the communities it serves. EBC recognises that businesses have a fundamental duty to address the socio-economic challenges faced by underserved populations. By supporting vulnerable groups such as orphans through initiatives that address both immediate needs and long-term growth, EBC seeks to empower individuals with the resources and care they need to thrive.

Baan Hathairak, established by the Satthachan Foundation in 2009, serves as a critical shelter for orphaned children, many of whom lack access to basic care and religious education. The foundation was created in 1998 to address the growing number of orphans in Bangkok and surrounding provinces, particularly those of Muslim faith. The shelter provides housing, education, and vocational training to help orphans become self-sufficient and lead dignified lives in accordance with Islamic teachings.
