WINNING THE DREAM
Every year here in northeastern Thailand, 10 Isaan villages come together for a spirited sport competition. Each village is represented by a large group of traditional dancers parading through the village in traditional dress towards the main event.
Our very own Ban Kung Learning Center dance team had a dream and never let it go. After weeks of dedicated rehearsal, we could not be more proud to announce they won first place in this award winning parade contest!
Congratulations to our 40 member crew of BKLC mothers and students who poured their hearts out into this challenge. Each participant beautifully represented the pride of their community.
And most of all, we deeply appreciate the Asha Foundation For Humanity for supporting our weekly programs at BKLC which benefit deserving women and children of our community. Onward and upward.

LEARNING EXPERIENCES IN THE REAL WORLD
Everyone knows a school field trip is one of the best tools we can use. This past weekend, a local kind-hearted farmer by the name of Kritsana Prachumsri stopped by our BKLC program to see if we were interested in purchasing organic mushrooms.
Inspired by our effort, he immediately invited the kids to hop in the back of a pickup truck, visit his innovative farm and learn what’s involved with mushroom cultivation. Mushrooms are a great source for a protein and has distinct sustainability benefits. Besides the obvious educational value, the students had a truly enjoyable experience that they will remember for years to come.
