The Context: November 2025 Floods Just last month, in November 2025, the Songkhla-Hat Yai region was struck by severe flash floods. The rising waters devastated infrastructure, displaced families, and damaged public institutions. While the waters have receded, the physical scars remain.

Disaster Management: The Recovery Phase We have now transitioned from immediate relief to the Recovery Phase. This camp is a critical part of that process. Our goal is to restore safety and structure to the community, allowing them to return to normalcy.

The Mission: Patong Wittaya School and many school in Songkhla were heavily impacted. To prevent long-term disruption to the children's education, we are mobilizing international volunteers to assist with urgent renovation work. We will be fixing, repairing, and repainting to ensure the school is safe and inspiring for the new term.
