A note from the founders

This charity began when we and our two young children (now grown!) visited Care Corner Orphanage in Chiang Mai back in 2007. Here, we saw firsthand how local care could transform the lives of orphans, children living with HIV, and persecuted refugee populations. The need for medical and structural support in these underserved communities became a clear call to action for us.

What started as a family volunteering trip eventually grew as we rallied support from enthusiastic individuals in the UK. In 2008, we brought a team of 20 back to Thailand to provide direct aid on the ground. This laid the foundation for what would eventually become Bread & Life International.

Today, we continue to expand our reach to other countries, partnering with local leaders to ensure judicious use of resources. Our aim remains the same: to bring dignity and hope to communities across South-East Asia through the creation of sustainable community projects.
