A part of Lotus Villa's vision of being a successful hotel is to sponsor the DeakKumPa orphanage in Luang Prabang.
Although Luang Prabang is a beautiful and spiritual town, many of the surrounding areas are home to some of the poorest people in the world. These funds are enough for only 2 meals per day. The orphanage relies on clothing donations from tourists and educational materials are sadly lacking. The vision of Lotus Villa is to provide breakfast every day for each child so that they will never have to go hungry again. Lotus Villa donates bread and milk to the orphanage for 4 days each week. The cost of this is $US4500 per year but this is still not enough. Our goal is to supply enough bread and milk so that the children can have breakfast every day. Any donations of children's clothing is warmly welcomed We recommend checking out these Luang Prabang businesses/organisations: Stay Another Day is a Non Government Organisation and non-profit organisation that is focused on creating sustainable tourism from the ground up It is aware of the wealth of information and culture that the local people have and the needs of their society, it attempts to marry quality tourism with the growing needs and development of local people, and is part of the Kop Noi shop. Traditional Arts & Ethnology Centre Vientiane International: The rooms are cleaned to the very highest of standards using environmentally sound cleaning mitts and cloths. |
