Charity Needs Foundation (CNF) is
building a network of tourists and holidaymakers that may be open to getting involved with
local community projects, for the odd day or two whilst they are on holiday, that are supported by registered charities.
The choice will be totally optional as booking a holiday break with any of the listed registered organisations benefits the not-for-profit projects anyway.
Our first excursion will be to the beautiful country of Thailand where you
can enjoy the gorgeous nature retreat that is known as Eco-Logic.
Eco-Logic is situated in the south east of Thailand's hidden natural gem — Ranong. This area of
Thailand is in it's southern provinces, on the west coast along the Andaman Sea and has the
fewest inhabitants of all Thai provinces. It neighbors Chumphon, Surat Thani, and Phang Nga
including, to the west, Kawthaung, Tanintharyi and Myanmar (Burma).
Eco-Logic has created a tourist nature retreat of equal beauty and relaxation with activities
that will suit their bold and adventurous guests too — like us at Charity Needs.
The retreat that Eco-Logic has created uses 100% of its profits to fund the
fully registered Thai charity called Thal Child Development Foundation (TCDF).
TCDF supports disabled and mentally challenged children to help them create and lead independent
lives in the communities where they live. Eco-Logic’s support has enabled them to build a
special needs school and community centre where they encourage other not-for-profit
organisations in the area to come together and work as a whole for the benefit of their
communities. It is a collaboration that is working and showing tangible results, and you taking
a holiday there justs adds to their success and will add to your wellbeing.
Here are two videos to show why you should consider break.
Bookings and reservation can be made direct on Eco-Logic's website through this link:

For those whom are animal lovers there will be the added choice of spending time at the rescue center of the Wildlife Friends Foundation Thailand (WFFT) charity which cares for rescued and neglected animals in Thailand.
The cost of your stay includes meals and drinks, but the stay here is all about hard work. It involves getting up early each morning to feed the animals, clean out their enclosures and create enriching tasks for the animals. This is a cycle that happens two or three times a day and by the end of it you will be exhausted and ready for bed to start all over again the next morning.
It’s the sort of holiday where you will need a relaxing holiday to recover after it. If you like the sound of both packages we suggest doing the hard stuff at WFFT first and that way you will really enhance your stay at Eco-Logic.
Towards the end of your stay CNF will throw a fabulous party for the guests to thank
them for their support. The party will be a mix of balearic dance music with touches of
eclectic soulful sing-along beats. And of course, there is no entrance fee, the party will be
our gesture of thanks to you so you can attend or not, that'll be your choice.
More importantly, the party will have a big screen showing the work that CNF is
doing and the campaigns and projects we are supporting and promoting, so it will give you a chance to
understand more of what we do.
