Pattaya entrepreneur gifts exploited children with new bicycles
The Anti-Human Trafficking and Child Abuse Centre (ATCC) in Nong Prue, Pattaya, provides a sanctuary for over 30 victims rescued from the clutches of sexual and slave labour exploitation. The centre offers a secure environment where victims can access education and receive support from counsellors and social workers.
The ATCC has played a crucial role in identifying and bringing numerous child traffickers and paedophiles to justice. Amicus, a local supporter, contributes by providing scholarships for children sheltered at the centre and offers periodic special donations throughout the year.
During a recent visit, a notable figure in Pattaya’s business community, Darin Phanthusak, paid a visit to the children’s home. As Vice President of PTS Holdings Company, which includes Tiffany’s Show, Woodlands Hotel, La Ferme, La Baguette, and the Yamaha Music School, Darin made a memorable impact.
The entrepreneur surprised the children with delightful treats from La Baguette and, most notably, gifted them with a fleet of new bicycles, which the children eagerly began to ride.
This gesture of kindness brought joy and excitement, illuminating the importance of community support, especially during the holiday season.
The ATCC continues to serve as a beacon of hope and recovery, relying heavily on the contributions of both individuals and businesses to sustain its significant work in providing refuge and a fresh start for those who have been exploited, reported Pattaya News.
