A brand new Project on Koh Sirey. This Project is
growing up after the "Tsunami Disaster" in December 2004.
In this case we will work close together with the
Lions Club Phuket Andaman Sea
Together we will build up the "Phuket Sunshine Village
Foundation"

Concept:
A Children's Village revolves around the desire to give children who
are either orphaned or who are no longer able to live with their
natural parent in a stable environment. The Children's Village
family structure is formed on four basic principles: Mother,
Brothers and Sisters, Home and Village.
Mother:
Each child is given a caring person who will become the Childs (
Substitute ) Mother. She is the main person who will care for this
child and is a substitute for the child's natural parents. She lives
in the house together with the children who are under her care.
Together with them she will organize the family's daily life. She
creates strong and dependable relationships and gives the children a
secure and loving home.
Brother & Sister:
Girls and boys of differing ages will grow up together in The
Children's Village family as Brothers and Sisters. Natural brothers
and sisters are not separated. Children are accepted from small
babies until the age of 16 unless there are brothers and sisters
involved, in which case the children could be older.
House:
Every family has a Home of its own. Each house/Bungalow has a
combined living/dining room as the centre of social life. The
familiar atmosphere of a home of their own encourages bonding within
the families and is another important piece in the "mosaic"
Children's Village to give the children a feeling of belonging and
shelter.
Village:
On average a Children's Village has between ten and fifteen family
houses. The village provides the background for an extended family
community. This supplies the children with cultural roots and gives
them a feeling of belonging. At the same time, village life is an
important bridge to the local community. “The Children's Village"
should be an open place which not only promotes the integration of
the Children's Village children into the local area but also
supports interaction and encounters with neighboring communities. |
