Kae Noi, Thailand - Medical Micro Team
The children of the Kae Noi Children’s Home have left a mark on the lives of everyone who has ever visited. In fact, the whole surrounding hillside Lahu village has been touched by hundreds of Eastsiders bringing support over the years. If you are a medical professional please consider joining our team of medical professionals serving the people of the remote villages in the Kae Noi region. This rural area has little accessibility to quality health care. The team will be working with local churches to set up field clinics in various areas to care for the communities. We may even have a chance to visit Kudsamsip, the village of new opportunity where we brought clean water last year. Your two-week journey in Thailand will end with a few days of continuing ministry along with rest and reward on the spectacular white sand beaches of Phuket!
