Sponsor a child or a student
The Jan & Oscar Foundation is committed to helping children whose parents cannot afford schooling. Scholarships are provided to pupils from the Uthai Thani province, in North West Thailand.
Our partner on-site, Mrs Sombut Singkaew, is in direct contact with the school principals and manages the scholarships. Family members of beneficiaries do not have access to the money. Throughout the school year, the persons responsible evaluate the students’ performance and meet with the students and their families. The scholarships allow poor families to buy uniforms and school equipment. No scholarship means no school !
