Find, help, and empower people in need
Home
Our Projects
Projects are the foundation of Philanthropy Connections. We take a two-step approach to our project involvement. First, we seek out community-driven initiatives started by local people to benefit their communities and improve their quality of life. Second, we connect these projects with sponsors willing to fund these activities.
Our Work
Philanthropy Connections was founded to find and help people in need. It is the common thread in all we do. Thanks to the generosity of our sponsors, we work to positively change the lives of the less fortunate. Those who we assist, find strength in the fact that people like you, our sponsors, help them to build a better future.
How to get Involved
You can either become a sponsor, or a donor. Sponsors choose to financially underwrite an entire project, and donors choose to contribute to help sustain our operations, as well as help fund our projects as needed. Sponsors and donors can be individuals, families, organisations, or businesses.

Earlier this month, we had the pleasure of catching up with Mol, our scholarship student since 2017. She's embarking on her second year of a bachelor's degree in General Science with a passionate dream of becoming a science teacher. However, there was one obstacle standing in her way: she didn't have her own laptop to aid her studies.
We managed to secure a second-hand laptop from Mazars Thailand Ltd., generously donated through Ian Bushell in his capacity as the director of the Lanna Needy Network.
Thank you to Ian Bushell and Mazars in Thailand for your ongoing support!

Meet Saing Sreika, a 16-year-old scholarship student in Cambodia who is currently in grade 12 at Puok high school. She would like to share about women's rights and express her gratitude to the sponsors.
"We should respect women as the mothers of the world, as they hold tremendous power in society across all countries. We strive for equality between women and men, which means they have the same opportunities as men in terms of employment and providing for their families.
Women have been engaged in a centuries-old struggle to achieve equal participation in society alongside men. Nowadays, women are fully active in society and enjoy equal rights, including freedom, equality, and justice. They have the right to participate in all activities and the right to stand for election or vote."
I would like to express my deep gratitude to the donor for your kindness in sponsoring my studies up until today. I would like to wish you and your family good health, strength forever, abundant prosperity, and success in your business endeavors. I am determined to give my best effort in studying, achieve excellent results at school, and become a valuable human resource for society.
A big thank you to Anthony Mann Mann (Tony) who sponsors Saing Sreika and many other students in memory of his beloved wife Nancy.

The children of Loi Sam Sip are innocent victims of armed conflict in Burma who have fled to the relative safety of this very basic IDP camp.
A school, no matter how small, in such an environment is vital to these children. Which is why we provide modest teachers' salaries, basic educational needs, operational costs, and meals for approx. 40 children from several ethnic groups since 2018.
All for 𝟯𝟬 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝗶 𝗯𝗮𝗵𝘁 𝗼𝗿 𝟬,𝟴𝟬 𝗲𝘂𝗿𝗼 per student per day.
The school also provides a dormitory for the students which the staff at the school look after and ensure the children have a safe place to sleep and the ability to study.
Thank you to all who donate to us. Your contributions enable us to support small but vital projects like this.

Words from Our Supporters
Actually, I never really related to development work, because I don’t like big, complex organisations. That’s the beauty of Philanthropy Connections: you know exactly what your money is used for.
Read more from Catherine here.
, Journalist and TV PersonalityI have seen a lot of development work where question marks can be placed with the usefulness and effectiveness, but Sallo and his organisation I trust unconditionally. He lives a simple life, close to the source and his support stems from respect, not from pity. That’s how it should be.
, Actress and TV PersonalityI support Philanthropy Connections because it is Sallo’s project. He knows to move mountains with few resources and has the talent to bring people together; a unique combination to efficiently and effectively match means with needs.
, Writer and TV PersonalityWith my family I visited several projects with Philanthropy Connections in 2011 and I was instantly convinced. It is so evident that this is right! What they do really works.
, Comedian and TV personalityCompletely selfless and at very meagre wage, Sallo helps hundreds, if not thousands of youngsters to a better existence. At a modest, but on an ever growing scale, straightforward and with integrity. That deserves support.
, Comedian and TV PersonalityAs precise and dedicated Sallo used to be as a floor manager, that’s exactly how he is here. Wonderful work and keeps at it until the job’s done. That’s what I love.
