At Haven there are opportunities for the people to begin a new life. A new start in life is often all we need to chart a new course to improvement and growth and come into a new level of living standards. Together with some aid, a fresh vision and some education, they can step towards the hope that exists in a new life. At Haven we can facilitate the necessary ingredients for that new life. With the help of our partners throughout the world, necessary funds are put to good use to bring this great vision into being. Some of the success stories about those that have availed themselves of the facilities and have run with the help from all the staff and volunteers, are encouraging to see.

Through opportunities and encouragement, Sanla has been educated at school and completed a hair dressing course to become one of the top hairstylists in the whole of Thailand. She had entered a competition for the North region of Chiang Mai and won the right to represent the region in a national competition, finishing in the top 10 of the nation. Haven is in the process of assisting her to open her own salon here in Chiang Mai. She is a shining example of what is possible with the help of Haven and all the partners that join in by supplying a regular gift of funds to the project.
