Toys for Thailand is a voluntary grassroots team of educators and community members who have been providing tangible goods and services for orphaned, abandoned, and refugee children living in remote villages of Thailand since 2005. Toys for Thailand is a project of the International Humanities Center, a 501 (c) 3 organization making donations tax deductible.

Through a semi-annual humanitarian trips to Thailand, we deliver the basic tools and resources such as instructional supplies, vocational training equipment, food and toys to the schools and orphanages, which house the children. Toys for Thailand has been an IHCenter progam since December 2007. Program Co-Directors are Sasha Bilar and Maria Miller.

Tayah, a 12 year old girl hosted a special Valentine's themed fundraiser raising funds for IHC - Toys for Thailand on February 6, 2010. Over 70 people attended the wine and chocolate tasting event and Tayah raised close to $6,000. The donation to Toys for Thailand will directly assist several hill tribe schools in the Mae Hong Son, Thailand. Tayah and her family, along with Toys for Thailand Co Directors Maria Miller and Sasha Bilar, will travel to Thailand in December 2010 and donate the following items: a rice husking machine, two pairs of stud pigs, 400 baby chicks, two tofu and soymilk machines, instructional supplies and gardening tools and seeds for three schools and a barber shop. The fundraiser was a wonderful success and Tayah hopes more donations will be sent in so she can provide one more rice husker to the Muser Nai School.
