Community minded Year 13 student, Sasipreeyakorn initiates Pattaya

donation project using her own pocket money.

Sasipreeyakorn, better known to her classmates as Ice is a Year 13 and IB student at Regents.

After witnessing the devastating impact that COVID was having on her community and watching the news reporting that hospital staff were feeling overwhelmed, Ice decided it was time to look after stressed staff at her local hospital.

Ice invested her own money selling masks and alcohol spay, and donated what she raised to buy the medical team at Banglamung Hospital essential supplies, including; a cooler box, insulated water bottles, PPE and uniforms, medical gloves, food and herbal drinks.

Ice also donated face masks to patients and visitors to the hospital.

But Sasipreeyakorn still wanted to do more for her community so desperately still in need. She decided she would raise funds for the Pattaya Orphanage to provide staff and children with essential supplies such as drinking water, diapers, fans and face masks.

 

Being a Round Square school means Regents focuses on internationalism, democracy, environmental awareness, adventure, leadership and service to the community.

These "IDEALS" can be found in almost everything we do and as a result, students have a deep appreciation for the local, regional and global communities of which they are a part of and a genuine wish to positively influence the world around them. Ice exemplifies these characteristics and the entire school community is extremely proud of Ice's entrepreneurial spirit and her incredible passion to help those in need in her community.
