Dear Wrist for Rights – Think Global School: PTIS,
On behalf of COSA, we would like to thank you for your donation of: 5,515 THB, which was raised in May 2012.
Children’s Organization of Southeast Asia works to prevent child trafficking and sexual exploitation throughout the South East Asia region. COSA operates from a community development approach, providing support, safety and opportunity to children who are victims of trafficking, sexual exploitation and abuse. In addition, COSA works closely with local organizations providing mental health training to staff members and assisting to create a positive future for all children and young women.
Your donation was put towards the building of a new communal kitchen, which is now used for all of our activities on the weekends, school homework in the evenings on the week days and all meals! With 21 girls and around 5-10 volunteers, the kitchen is always a busy place. We are incredibly grateful for your support and hope to work with you again in the future.
Please keep this written acknowledgment as receipt of your donation.

Mickey Choothesa
