“Then in Kamakura, I met the founder of Banromsai, an orphanage in Chiang Mai, Thailand, founded in 1999.
Home to children who lost their parents to HIV/AIDS or contracted HIV from their mothers. In addition to offering shelter and education, Ban Rom Sai proactively confronts the stigma associated with AIDS/HIV within local communities. Formerly reliant solely on donations, they now create opportunities for locals through their locally crafted clothing label,
@banromsai, channeling profits towards orphanage facilities and management.

Understanding the ecosystem of this organization and finding ways to connect them to Indian communities (through
@dharathfoundation )working in ethical ways of producing clothes, in order to keep on generating funds that help sustain the maintenance of the orphanage.
