It's been a slow weekend and looks like it will also be a slow week. I had a piece of rotten fruit fall on my head while I was driving the motorbike out of town, Katarina and I delivered 12 pomelos, each the size of a soccer ball, to the shelter, and we ran out of soap for the children, as well as money to pay our staff and the electricity bill. Kham Chuen is sick with worry. Fortunately, thanks to a donation from my second cousin Davey we will be able to pay for the truck this month to get the kids to school.
Just as an FYI, these are what our most current needs are, as well as prices in Thai baht (THB)
- Used truck, good condition – 200,000 baht (about $5000)
- Staff salaries – 6000 THB
- Paper and stationary costs – 800 THB
- Intern salary – 3000 THB
- Electricity for office – 800 THB
- Fuel for the generator – 1000 THB
- Guardian’s salary – 2000 THB
- Food for the children – 1000 THB
- Clothing and hygiene supplies for children – 500 THB
