Vocational Training Helps Locals and Community

On 30th March, Kru Prateep attended a ceremony to award certificates to those who had passed the National Skill Standard Tests, at Bangkok Vocational Training School (Klong Toey). The school focuses on short, intensive vocational training in a variety of fields for local people, who can then use their new skills to both improve their own circumstances and benefit their community. Presiding over the ceremony was Ms. Kanchana Phupipatphon, Director of the Social Development Office. Also participating in the ceremony were the school’s director, Mr. Phuchakorn Thongtha, and all the instructors, who warmly congratulated the graduates. The project “Warm Hearts: Rewiring Electrical Systems in Klong Toey Communities,” an initiative of Khru Prateep, has also joined hands with the school to train new community electricians at an affordable cost, aimed at reducing the risk of fire hazards and improving safety in densely populated communities. The Duang Prateep Foundation believes that “opportunity” is the starting point for life-changing transformation, and that every form of support is a vital force in building a sustainable future for the community.
