Phuket Ladyboys to Make a Million Baht Splash in Pattaya for Charity

Monday, October 21, 2013
PHUKET: Cocktails & Dreams Bar from soi Bangla, Patong Beach, is sending a team of volleyball players to compete in a water volleyball competition at The Areca Lodge Hotel Pattaya next Saturday.

With ticket sales, merchandising, auction, and donations, nominated charities will receive one million baht.

Where will that money go? This year we are supporting four charities in Pattaya, Phuket and Bangkok.

Once again proceeds will go to Rotary Clubs Water4Life program. In addition to Water4Life, proceeds will go to another worthy Pattaya charity: HEARTT 2000.

Led by Dr Philippe Seur, HEARTT 2000 is a group of volunteers that assists those afflicted with HIV-AIDS.

In Bangkok proceeds from the ladyboy water volleyball tourney will go to the St. Camillus Foundation of Thailand's Camillian Home program.

Camillian Home's goal is to provide children living with disabilities as normal a family life as possible, as well as creating a barrier-free environment for people with disabilities and their families.

Our fourth charity this year is Phuket's Life Home Project. Life Home's aim is to provide a shelter for mothers who are HIV positive and their children where they can live safely in a supportive community.

As well as raising such an enormous sum of money in a single day, it will help raise the profile of a group of people often given bad publicity.

Indeed Pattaya News, Pattaya Mail, and a local radio station will have a presence at the event.
