GoalThe goal of this project is to support school growth and development at Chiang Rai International Christian School to allow the school to better accommodate an additional 75-100 students in the next 5- 10 years.
SummaryThis project seeks to raise $39,216 annually in order to improve current campus infrastructure, support a global teachers fund, and build new classrooms.
DescriptionThe Chiang Rai International Christian School (CRICS) serves 250 students in northern Thailand by providing a quality, holistic Christian education. CRICS strives to provide an English-based Christian education for the children of those who came to Chiang Rai to serve in various ways. The campus includes classroom buildings, a cafeteria, a science building, and an athletic building. The next phase of growth at CRICS includes improving upon and expanding the campus to meet growing needs. CRICS needs to add more classrooms to accommodate an additional 75-100 students. Another important part of their growth plan includes recruiting and retention of teachers. Our ASEAN/Global Teachers fund allows us to recruit and financially support teachers from developing nations who may not be able to raise adequate funds from their home country. Since many of the school’s families are international Christian workers, the school’s presence allows them to continue their service, impacting many people groups through varied ministries in the Chiang Rai area. Growing the school’s capabilities will allow more families to come and minister in this area.
Suggested GiftsA gift of $1000 will replace 3 original wooden doors with commercial standard doors OR support a teacher from a developing nation for 1 month. A gift of $5,000 will help to build a handicap accessible ramp to the second floor auditorium. A generous gift of $10,000 would Improve the old parking lot and pour new annex extension lot OR build a connecting breezeway between Building A & C to aid with handicap accessibility.
Prayer RequestsPray that the students will share what they are learning about the love of God with their parents. Pray for the teachers who come from other countries to share their skills with the students. Pray for the families of students who serve in ministry in the Chiang Rai area.
