Thailand
"The CCS workers and staff provided us a comfortable "home away from home." Pimsuda runs a very supportive program and constantly made sure we were all comfortable in our settings. Many opportunities were made available to us to experience Thai culture including cultural trips, language and cooking lessons, and guest speakers."Caroline Richards, Volunteer in Thailand
