Wishing Well

Founded by passionate students, WishingWell aims to help elderly individuals in elderly homes, providing a sense of comfort and warmth to those in local senior centers. Alongside that, this club also intends to provide a service opportunity for younger generations to build intergenerational connections and be a part of a heartwarming experience in contributing back to society.

After nearly a year of planning, WishingWell is ready to make a difference by not only engaging with the senior community but also encouraging intergenerational connections with our Concordian community. This club was established as a result of our young founder’s strong inspiration from a school trip experience to Wattana Niwat Foundation, a senior center in Khaoyai. Despite the small acts of playing Bingo and dancing alongside them, the difference made was truly significant. The heartwarming smiles on the seniors’ faces created a unique form of joy that was rooted in the heart of service.

WishingWell aims to promote the overall well-being of senior citizens through friendly visits, meaningful conversations, social interactions, and wellness exercises. Many seniors often face isolation and loneliness, alongside decreased mobility and strength. With this topic at hand, WishingWell intends to create purposeful activities to improve both physical and mental health by not just offering assistance but also genuine connection. Additionally, WishingWell aims to encourage students to build compassion and awareness surrounding other generations and communities, while also growing as individuals.

With one final statement, we are embarking on this journey with a purpose: to build “a well of kindness for every generation”.

Green Heart Collective

This summer, members of the Greenheart Collective joined hands with Furnish Hope, a student-led project focused on up-cycling discarded wood into functional furniture (e.g, desks, chairs, and lunch tables) for schools in need.

Thanks to generous support from the school, especially Mr. Clynt’s Romeo and Juliet production which raised an incredible 41,199 THB, we were able to build 16 sets of lunch tables and benches for Khlong Palat Priang School. With guidance from Perfect Furniture Group, a furniture company in Thailand, we were able to hand-build the table sets ourselves, particularly the assembly process which took two long days! This project gave our members practical experience in woodworking and also showed us how sustainable design and teamwork can make a tangible difference.

Furnish Hope has previously carried out projects in Nakhon Ratchasima, Mae Sot, and Ang Thong, and we are proud that Concordian’s contribution continues this positive change—both in terms of sustainability and social impact. This also aligns with the Greenheart Collective’s goal of focusing on environmentally -friendly solutions to problems within our community.

When we delivered the final products, we could see the joy on the students’ faces, which reminded us that sustainability and service can go hand in hand to create real impact. We look forward to participating in more projects like this in the future!

Habitat For Humanity

The Habitat for Humanity Club gives students the chance to take part in meaningful, hands-on service. Last year, members of the club fundraised and attended two site builds in Pathum Thani and Ayuttaya, where we worked together to help construct homes for local families. We had the opportunity to learn from a professional how to mix cement from scratch and spread it into the foundations of the houses, making the work enjoyable and rewarding. We were able to try new skills such as tying wire and reinforcing the foundations, giving us a glimpse into the real effort and precision that goes into building a safe, secure home.

One of the most memorable moments was when we formed a line to pass heavy buckets of cement from person to person, reminding us of how much we can achieve when everyone contributes. Members of the club were supportive of one another, making the experience pleasant despite the workload. By the end of each day, we were exhausted but proud to see the visible progress we had made together. The experience in Pathum Thani and Ayutthaya showed us that teamwork, perseverance, and empathy is essential to accomplish big projects.

Seed of Hope

Greetings! We are SOH (Seed of Hope), a service club which is dedicated towards environmental conservation efforts and mangrove reforestation. Our aim is to bring the community together — closer than ever — and get ourselves immersed in the mud! This year, we wish to achieve planting a total of 1,000+ mangrove seedlings. More so, to raise awareness about the importance of mangrove forests and how this particular ecosystem is such a crucial piece of our everyday lives.

This year, the club is not only going to be adding more planting trips and interesting excursions for our members, but more so, the club is going to host trips for the public! We encourage everyone in the community to join us on our community planting trips, enjoy the sun and soak in the mud! We promise, it might seem intimidating at first, but it is truly therapeutic. Talk about a natural therapy which is free of charge!

This year the club is introducing two new projects: Rooted Bites, which is a combination of organic food stands with educational content, and our Organic Fertilizer Project, which aims to create an even more sustainable fertilizer than your average eggshell or animal feces! We hope everyone will take part in our journey, and support us along the way.

Together, we make an impact.

Sincerely,
