So, along with the villa owners, we find out the needs of the community and help out as much as we can. In the past, we have supported the children of local prisoners in Baan Lung Pitak prison and the abused mothers in <a href=\"https:\/\/goodshepherdphuket.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Good Shepherd<\/a> by donating food and gifts on Children\u2019s Day and Christmas. And we are always looking for locally-sourced products we can use in our villas. One such product we use is a beautifully scented soap made by abused mothers. We give this soap as gifts to our guests on their birthdays or in special gift baskets and we include a note about the women who make the soap and what they\u2019re doing to make their lives better. We heard Yaowawit has a really good organic farm and that they also make products like detergent, so in addition to giving gifts today, we\u2019d like to look into buying their produce or products for our villas. That way, our assistance is more long term.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload aligncenter wp-image-14980 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Yaowawait-1024x576.jpeg\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Yaowawait-1024x576.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%271024%27%20height%3D%27576%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%201024%20576%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%271024%27%20height%3D%273576%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Yaowawait-200x113.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Yaowawait-250x141.jpeg 250w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Yaowawait-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Yaowawait-320x180.jpeg 320w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Yaowawait-400x225.jpeg 400w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Yaowawait-533x300.jpeg 533w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Yaowawait-550x309.jpeg 550w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Yaowawait-600x338.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Yaowawait-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Yaowawait-800x450.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Yaowawait-889x500.jpeg 889w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Yaowawait-1024x576.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Yaowawait-1200x675.jpeg 1200w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Yaowawait-1536x864.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Yaowawait.jpeg 1600w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>When the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.elitehavens.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Elite Havens<\/a> team arrived, a group of children rushed to meet them. \u201cThe children here are used to interacting with volunteers from all over the world.
