On the back of Building Homes: Manila 2012 – 2014, Woh Hup continues it’s mission to give back with Building Communities: Chiang Mai 2016.

Known as the Rose of the North, Chiang Mai is Thailand’s 5th largest city with a population of more than 1 million. Situated in the lush valley on the banks of the Ping River, 700 km North of Bangkok – it is a land of misty mountains and colorful hill tribes. It is a paradise for shoppers and a delight for adventurers.

Through a project located in the Sankhampeang District – approximately 25 kilometers from outside of Chiang Mai – Woh Hup staff will work alongside a YMCA community to build a Love & Care Centre over the course of 4 trips. This facility will be constructed to improve the quality of life for the elderly and youth within the community in this district.

YMCA of Singapore is a volunteer-based Christian organization that seeks to serve and impact all members of the community, regardless of race, language or religion, through programmes, services and enterprises to develop the body, mind and spirit. They also extend their outreach to the less privileged overseas through our International Service Programmes (ISP) to the needy in Thailand, Cambodia, Indonesia, Myanmar, Vietnam, Philippines, Laos, Sri Lanka, China and Nepal.
