My name is Bethany and I'll be finishing Uni this summer with a degree in Education and Early Childhood Studies. I'm travelling to Chiang Mai in the north of Thailand by myself to volunteer with a BMS World Mission sponsored project called 'Hope Home'.

Hope home specialises in foster care, caring for several children who have special needs and offers respite care to families of children with disabilities. I'm hoping to work in this area and gain valuable experience while helping a fantastic project that makes a real difference to young lives in Thailand.

I've been working part-time to save and fund this trip for the last two years but if you would like to support me then that would be greatly appreciated. Any money raised will go towards travel costs, supporting the project and my accommodation while there. Any extra money will go to the project and the children.
