Thanks to our amazing springtime volunteers, the generous Zeilman family, and the unwavering dedication of Don Germaise, weβve officially reached our goal! Weβve raised enough funds to purchase and install a large industrial dryer at our project site in Thailand.
This effort began when Don, during his volunteer vacation, noticed that many of the children, war orphans and survivors of trafficking, had only one or two sets of clothing. Without access to a dryer, their clean clothes often remained damp in Thailandβs humid climate, leading to persistent and painful skin rashes.
That simple observation sparked something powerful. Don launched the fundraiser, and you guys rallied! In the weeks that followed, dozens of generous donors stepped up. Fellow Thailand volunteer Tara Zeilman and her family, moved by the childrenβs stories and Donβs passion, helped carry the effort across the finish line.

Now, with temperatures soaring and humidity making it nearly impossible for clothes to dry, this new dryer means less money spent on rash treatments, more comfort, greater dignity, and, most importantly, more time for the kids to just be kids.
THANK YOU to everyone who gave, shared, and supported. Your compassion has made a lasting difference.
