COVID-19 Project Update!
Hello all! We hope you and your families have been doing well and are staying safe.
We are so saddened to share that due to COVID-19, we are no longer able to travel to Thailand this summer to implement our kitchen project at the Bannonggo School.
The good news is that next year's PUC cohort is going to take over our project, and hopefully we might be able to join them next summer! Although the project is on hold, one thing we know for sure is that the kitchen will still get built! All donations will be held by the university for next years team to use for the continuation of the kitchen project.
We just wanted to say thank you so so much to everyone who donated, shared our posts, and followed along with us on this amazing experience. Without you all, we wouldn’t have been able to come this far!
We will continue to post updates on the project and hope that you will continue to follow along with us and next year's team. We will also be sure to relay any relevant updates from the university.
Talk to you all soon and stay safe!
HUGE Thank You!
Hi all! We are so excited to announce that our HornRaiser has officially REACHED $15,000!
We seriously cannot thank you all enough! We are so so grateful for the continuous support! As cheesy as it sounds, none of this would have been possible so thank you!
Thank you SO much to those who donated and spread the word about our project along with those who contributed to our late night snack sales, Chipotle Profit Share, and shirt & laptop sticker sales. You are all the absolute best!
As for project progress, the termite-infested storage room has already been completely torn down and is ready for us to take action. Seeing how excited the community is this early into the project is amazing! We cannot wait to meet the Suphan Buri community over the summer!
Stay tuned for more project updates as we are going full dive into the designing process. Thank you once again!
