Three Philanthropists Visit La Salle Bamboo School

LEAD Story 394

THAILAND - The season of giving started early in La Salle Bamboo school as three generous donors visited the students to share some presents.

Mr. Carl Oppenborn, former chair of La Salle Bangkok Alumni Association, with Mr. Mike Kuntz from Billings, Montana, and Mr. Paul Beaudoin from St. Louis, Missouri, visited the facilities and checked the conditions of the students in the Bamboo School.

Mr. Oppenborn, known to the students as Mr. Magnum as he always gives Magnum ice cream to the students, has supported La Salle Bamboo School for ten years. His generous contribution helped the Brothers to build a futsal court and provided televisions and computers for the students ‘new learning experiences.

On their special visit, they provided happiness to the students as they shared simple meals like noodles and ice cream with everyone. Before they left, the donors donated money to the school administrators headed by Br. Benilde Preecha Traikeaw FSC for school facilities and student improvement.

Indeed every day is a season of sharing if we continue to practice generosity to one another! If you are also interested in sharing some blessings with our students in La Salle Bamboo School, just email us at joe_klong@yahoo.com . (Text: Br. Eugene de Luna FSC; Photos: Br. Stephen Pichit FSC)
