A Matching Grant for an Emergency Home in Thailand.
Due to the terrible floods that had occurred in Thailand in
November-December 2011 , an "Emergency Home" for abused women and
children has been “rebuilt” in the surroundings of Bangkok through a Matching
Grant along with The Rotary Foundation.
This MG has been done between the Rotary Club of Patumwan , D.3350, as
Host Partner , a Rotary Club in Japan as International Primary Partner , and
the “Rotary E-Club 9920 Francophone” as Secondary International Partner , along
with Rotary Clubs from France , Taiwan , Singapore and Finland.
The “Inter Country Committee France-Thailand” was the “link” between
all partners in order to raise more funds for this MG, in which TRF contributed with a grant .
