We just arrived in Chiang Mai, Thailand after 4 flights and 28 hours in the air. One of the first things we did after we arrived at my son's home, was to open the bags of clothing from the BJPT Thrift Shop. We brought two 50 pound bags of children and baby clothes.
This is On (Robs wife) sorting the clothes
When we started sorting the clothing we met Rob's housekeeper who was a childhood friend of On my son's wife. The housekeeper keeps the house clean, does the wash, helps with the garden and takes care of the baby when On and Rob have to run errands. She works 6 days a week for 10 hours a day. The photo below is of her labeling a few of the pieces of clothing for some recent refugees from Burma who live in her community. They came with only the clothing on their backs, so the few pieces of clothing On and Rob's housekeeper requested will mean a lot to the kids.
Each piece of clothing is individually labelled for the kids
