Opening New Experiences: Sosatha Children's Home and Cape & Kantary Hosts 15th Annual Summer Travel and Study Tour

The Thai Royal Foundation's Sosatha Children's Home, which provides substitute family care for orphaned children who have lost their parents or relatives, continues its annual summer travel and study program for the 15th year with support from Cape & Kantary Hotels. Theeraphong Pungsrivongse, founder of Cape & Kantary Hotels and deputy director of the Sosatha Children's Foundation, leads this year's initiative titled "Strengthening Sibling Bonds and Family Unity" running from April to May 2025.

The program aims to provide youth from all five Sosatha Children's Home locations—Bangkok, Hat Yai, Nong Khai, Chiang Rai, and Phuket—with new learning experiences and life skill development through travel and educational activities. This year, over 600 youth will participate in trips to attractions near their respective home locations, with Cape & Kantary Hotels covering all expenses including transportation, accommodation, meals, and activities.

"I am delighted that Cape & Kantary Hotels has continuously supported and created wonderful experiences for these youth over the past 15 years," Theeraphong said. "We believe these experiences will foster their physical and emotional development and inspire their futures."

The five groups will undertake three-day, two-night trips in late April 2025: Chiang Rai group (158 youth) to Kantary Hills Chiang Mai, Phuket group (130 youth) to Kantary Beach Khao Lak, Samut Prakan group (99 youth) to Kantary Bay Rayong, Nong Khai group (122 youth) to Kantary Korat, and Surat Thani group (134 youth) to Kantary Beach Khao Lak.

Additionally, Theeraphong and his family members donated 1 million baht to support the foundation's multipurpose building construction, along with annual operational support from Cape & Kantary Hotels.
