How
You Can Help In The Fight Against Child Prostitution And Child
Labour
Grass
roots activity like this is a powerful way to stop child trafficking
in Thailand. The abuse of children's rights, sexual exploitation,
forced child labour and the socio-economic problems of the
underprivileged of our world are problems for all nations
to act on. At DEPDC we urge all people around the world to
support the prosecution of perpetrators of crimes against
children and to aid the empowerment of those vulnerable to
exploitation.
Your
donations
DEPDC
is an independent organisation with no religious or government
affiliations which relies on grants and donations to continue
its work. Money is currently being sought for the following
purposes:
Support
of girls
Every year several hundred girls are referred to DEP, many
times more than can be offered places. It costs about US $
500 per year for every girl DEP supports at school. This amount
covers the costs of school uniforms, equipment and activities,
lunch and school transport, as well as life development and
health care programs.
Accommodation
for hill-tribe children
Many hill-tribe children have no suitable schools in their
villages. Family problems prevent others from learning. Funds
are required to provide food and accommondation for those
who have to live away from home to obtain education.
Study
tour
Many of the children in the Program have never travelled away
from home. During the school holidays a group is taken on
tour to see the reality of life in Thai cities and the social
and environmental problems in other areas of the country.
