About the Cause

Posted by TH0424 in Thailand on 11/07/2025

I see most people in the community, almost every family, starting with the idea of farming once a year. After deducting expenses, the income from farming is approximately 2,500-4,000 baht per square meter, depending on the price of agricultural produce. Each family owns no more than 10 rai of land, earning around 30,000 baht. On average, they earn over 80 baht per day. A family of four earns an average of 20 baht per person per day, which is insufficient to cover family expenses. This leads to migration to major cities and overseas for work. This results in families not living together, leading to numerous problems such as family breakdown, drug addiction, delinquency, petty theft, and sexual issues. These problems persist at both the community and national levels and remain unresolved because these individuals lack the necessary vocational skills and the right support to generate a sufficient income from their own resources, such as land and other assets. Therefore, this project aims to promote knowledge and skills in vocational skills and sustainable income generation for families. This will address the root causes of children, youth, and families.

How the church will sustain the Cause

Once the target group receives funding from this project, they can use the funds to implement the established objectives. This aims to provide them with knowledge and skills for practical application and generate income through the vocational training they have received for their families. This will also reduce migration problems and help them recognize the importance of creating jobs within their own communities, generating income from available resources, ensuring sufficient household expenses, and contributing to the church for God's mission, including these groups. This project will further benefit children, youth, and the wider community.
