จุดเริ่มต้น How it began

One woman opened her door — and never closed it.

In 2015, Kru Boonchoo Muangmaithong began caring for people with special needs in her own home in Sattahip — children and adults with autism, Down syndrome, and cerebral palsy who had few other places to turn.

That home became a registered foundation. Today it is a live-in home, a day school, and a small working space — caring for nearly 200 residents, from young children to adults, supported by a devoted team who give their days to this place.

It is humble and rural, and it runs on care and the kindness of others — but to everyone who lives here, it is everything.

พันธกิจของเรา Our mission

Caring for the whole person

Every resident, young or grown, is met where they are and helped toward one goal — to live happily, capably, and with dignity in their community.

A real home

Warm meals, a safe bed, and steady routines — with caregivers on hand around the clock who know every resident by name.

Learning & growing

Patient, individual teaching matched to each person’s ability — building words, skills, independence, and quiet confidence at any age.

Skills for life

Self-care, vocational training, and sport — so every resident, child or adult, can build independence and take real pride in what they can do.

หัวใจของบ้าน The hearts behind the home

Our team

A home like this does not run on its own. Behind every meal, every lesson, every gentle hand is a small team who arrive before sunrise and stay long after dark. Caregivers, teachers, therapists, cooks, and helpers — they are the quiet heart of Ban Kru Boonchoo.

ทำไมการสนับสนุนจึงสำคัญ Why your help matters

A home this size needs many hands.

Ban Kru Boonchoo receives no guaranteed government funding. Caring for nearly 200 residents — children and adults — is sustained almost entirely by the generosity of those who choose to help.

Without that support, this home could not stay open. Every gift — large or small, once or monthly — goes straight into the daily lives of the residents and the team who care for them.

Support the home
