Hi, thanks for visiting this page! As you may know, for the last 10 months, I've been fortunate enough to live and work at a wonderful foundation in Thailand called ‘New Life Foundation’. NLF is a non-profit organisation set up by generous donations of a few people. The mission of NLF is simple: to offer a fresh start and new perspective on life for all who come to stay with us, at very affordable prices. One of the greatest joys of working at New Life as a life coach is to witness individual growth and transformation on a daily basis... More on this in the mini documentary: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMWtA-ND_m8&feature=youtu.be Due to the growing needs of the community there is a big need to have an additional Life Coach Building so that we can offer more life coaching, body work, therapies & activities. The aim is to fundraise so that this building can be created. It will largely be built by Volunteers and Residents in the Community using mud bricks and other natural resources. However, some local expertise and materials are needed and that's why this fundraising campaign has been set up. I, along with members of the community, will be taking part in some fun fundraising activities... We will be holding 3 FLASHMOB EVENTS in Chiang Rai Plaza, which will involve singing, dancing, drums, collective humiliation, and ....maybe even cups! The community aims to raise 400,000 Thai Baht / €9,000 (1,000 THB = €22.50 approx), and to commence construction after the rainy season in October 2014. To help the community reach this target I have set up this personal fundraising page with a goal to raise 10,000 THB (€225)to help contribute to the funds. If you feel inspired, I would love it if you would join me in supporting New Life's work by giving whatever you can. If you would like to sponsor me you can make safe and secure donations through PayPal or by credit card (in Thai Baht) by clicking on the "Donate Now" icon above. Using this platform is really simple. Please feel free to also share my page with friends, voice encouragement, or even join me and get involved yourself! Please know that every pound / dollar / euro / baht all help; and that any money donated will go towards enabling more people to experience their true potential. The proceeds of your support are immediately sent directly to the foundation. Any additional funds raised will go directly to scholarships for people who need, yet cannot afford, the program here. With much gratitude, Ciara Mc Ardle
