Flooding in the Northern part of Thailand
September 15, 2024
Dear TPAA members and families,
We are all aware of the severe flooding in the northern part of Thailand. The death toll is mounting,
people are suffering from tsunami-like flooding and landslides. The pictures of little kids up on
the rooftop, crying and being consoled by kids not much bigger than them, make us want
to pitch in and help.
As president of TPAA Foundation, I made an immediate request, and approval, for a release
of $30,000 from the TPAA Foundation Disaster Emergency Relief Fund. To achieve
maximum results, this fund will be donated and wired to the Chaipattana Foundation tomorrow.
Efforts are underway to raise additional funds for the relief effort and also to replenish the Disaster
Emergency Relief Fund.
Please help with the relief effort. It is undoubtedly going to be a severe hardship for those being
affected by this terrible ordeal. We will do the best we can to help and make a difference.
The following is the address for the donation and contact:
