Childlife-A future for street children in Mae Sai
ChildlifeVision 2002   the work         start         dream          .......we support the dream
Background: The current house originally had been rented for one year only and
the bank(as owner) would like to sell it and out of this reason refuses any long-term
tenancy agreement. A neighbour in particular tries hard to get rid of the project, this
argument strains the project. Yet to obtain official recognition the authorities are
asking for a at least five year tenancy agreement, which can't be obtained for the
current house. The current house's capacity limit already has been reached or even
exceeded, the available space is insufficient to accommodate the children properly.
Solution:The search for a suitable property that meets all the criteria had been unsuccessful so far
But a neighbour and friend of Childlife is willing to rent out his property,
that encompasses 6 hectares. He also would help with the construction
work and with preparing the soil for fieldwork, He furthermore would
provide the machinery and agricultural tools for free
Childlife also would be able to make use of two fish ponds
and some ducksa and cows as well.
The rent would be
40.000 Baht per year ca. 1.055 Euro A tenancy agreement for five years is offered too.
The magnification( click at it) shows further details,
the following sketches show some of the buildings planned..
The costs for material, bus bar, wages for work that only can be done by trained men and some labourers would amount to approximately 600.000 Baht = approximately 16.000 Euro.
These costs would be incurr step by step and partly would be variable in time
.......advantages of "ChildlifeVision 2002"

Reduction of costs through own crop growing, livestock
husbandry and through marketing of surpluses.
The construction and agricultural works are am opportunity
in particular for the older children to obtain useful work
skills that could prove useful for their future employment
chances.
Growing their own crops furthermore should be positive for the children's development and self esteem.
The planned construction, usage of traditional, natural materials offers the opportunity to hire local labourers,
who otherwise are. Unemployed.
The usage of natural resources and alternative renewable energies is planned as long as the costs remain within
the budget limit. Thus the project would like to give a signal concerning this issue, that is important for our
common future. You can take a look at the sketches as pdf files., water supply, power supply, description
