Central Group, in collaboration with the Royal Thai Army and network partners, brings smiles to children in southern border provinces and other regions by giving gifts filled with care, encouragement and opportunities as part of the 14th year of the "Million Gifts Million Smiles" project. This is also the third year in a row that the Equitable Education Fund (EEF) has partnered in this effort.
As part of the campaign, Central Group invites Thais to participate in delivering New Year and Children's Day gifts and providing scholarships for disadvantaged children through three main channels -- giving scholarships through the EEF; delivering gifts through drop-off locations; and donating money. Donations can be made until Dec 31.
New gifts that can be donated include bicycles, school supplies, sports equipment, stationery items and toys. All donations can be made via three main channels:
- Pay It Forward: Give great education opportunities by supporting underprivileged children through the EEF with 2,500 baht scholarships, at tham-dee.com/projects/mgms2023, from today to New Year's Eve. Those making donations on behalf of companies or individuals are entitled to a double tax deduction.
