Bella Ranee Donates Millions, Drives Truck to Flood Zones
Actress Bella Ranee Campaign donated millions of baht to flood relief in northern and southern Thailand and purchased a pickup truck to personally deliver supplies to stranded victims. She explained she initially donated cash for efficiency but later chose to visit affected areas directly after seeing families forced onto highways. Bella also addressed the Boom Pannada charity controversy, expressing disappointment but noting her prior trust stemmed from years of working together and witnessing Boom's hands-on charitable work.
Bella Ranee Campaign opens up about donating millions to charity after being inspired by Boom Pannada's image as a strong woman. She reveals buying a new pickup truck to personally deliver aid to flood victims, emphasizing her role as a leading actress who consistently helps society during crises. On November 13, she attended the Golden Zebra Jeans event at Central Rama 9 and shared behind-the-scenes details of her flood relief efforts, including multi-million baht donations and her decision to operate directly in disaster areas.
Regarding the news about Boom Pannada? "I was quite shocked. It's better if I don't comment on the judgment because the legal process is ongoing and we must await the court's verdict. But if the news is true, it's disappointing because it's not just me — countless millions of accounts donated because they loved and trusted her, believing this woman takes real action. I started helping with individual cases first, like an autistic pregnant woman with no money for delivery, then major disasters: northern floods one million, southern floods another million. (Do you think we made merit?) Yes, from the moment we set our minds to it, because we intended to sacrifice. Next will require more effort than just donating money."
Why did you trust her? "I knew her before the foundation, we filmed lakorns together. Filming together is like living together for years. Boom would tell me about projects she was doing, and she showed results in many ways. Wow, a strong woman who helps society — she's an idol. "At first I listened casually, but when the foundation took shape, she was serious. She gave many interviews, shared stories, we met at events. She said donations are never enough no matter how much money because the need is huge. "But the flood disaster was unexpected and happened fast. We felt concerned. If I recall correctly, donating goods might not match what victims need. Cash is easiest — let locals allocate and buy necessities. So I donated cash. "Finally, I went to the field myself. This flood round I went in person, didn't just transfer money. Interviewer: (Went yourself, bought a truck?) Yes, bought a pickup. I had business via the Nakhon Nayok route and saw people sleeping roadsides. Their homes weren't flooded but they had to move belongings to the new elevated highway. That road was accessible. I thought I must go one day, so I packed supplies and distributed them myself.
Did you study the field routes long? "Not really. I talked to victims. Some had no escape — one disabled, one diabetic, couldn't be in water for months. Heartbreaking. The road is new but their houses are low..."
