Welcome
“Sometimes simply giving someone the chance to explore for themselves what they have inside, is worth far more than hours of instruction.” ~ John Cope, Director of Stratton ABC Foundation.
Raison d’être
To use ART as a tool for underprivileged children and communities to express themselves; to transform and transcend their environment.
A colourful wall mural, a simple little painting on the wall, a communal playground with art randomly placed, a painted post box or dustbin can bring smiles and a sense of ownership to the children and adults who crafted them. Art empowers them emotionally and gives them an useful craft or skill. Plus it’s fun!
Note: This is a non-religious organisation. I believe in giving children a voice through art regardless of ethnicity/religious or political backgrounds.
We can not thank you enough for your inspirational work here at Stratton house that has helped to brighten our environment, our lives and our souls.
Thank you John. It was a privilege to paint with such talented children!

Hi Hermine
Thanks for writing in. Right now, I don’t have any major projects that require any volunteers. You may wish to google and get in touch with Stratton ABC Foundation, Kids Home Foundation, Thai Freedom House etc in Chiang Mai.
Good luck. Let me know if you need more names of organizations here.
Best regards
