Rather than returning home after the Tsunami disaster, Ron and Rebecca felt moved to stay in Thailand to do what they could to help the Thai people. Ron tells how he had no clothing after the wave, and was given clothes by a native Thai.
You may have read about the Sea Gypsies. If not, you may read about it here: http://kdka.com/topstories/topstories_story_001002424.html. Their entire village was destroyed. Says Ron, “We feel as though we can make a real impact by rebuilding this village.”
A dollar goes a long way in Thailand. The dollar is so strong compared to the currency here, that we as average people can make a real impact. Maybe you can skip lattes for a week. $20 can feed a person for a month in Thailand.
Thank you for your donations!!
