The National Outstanding Mothers Council held a press conference titled "Unite Hearts, Outstanding Mothers Council Helps Red Cross" to mark its first participation in the 2026 Red Cross Fair. The council seeks to rally goodwill from its nationwide network of outstanding mothers and the public to support the Thai Red Cross Society's missions, channeling assistance to disadvantaged and vulnerable groups. The council also invited its committees, provincial associations and clubs, government agencies, private organizations, and citizens to join in delivering aid and supporting Red Cross activities.

Ms. Sukanya Prachuabmo, President of the National Outstanding Mothers Council, stated that joining the Red Cross Fair this year represents another important step for the council in expanding its nationwide network's participation to create social benefit. Proceeds from the activities aim to support the Thai Red Cross Society under royal patronage, while also promoting the council's mission to assist impoverished mothers, single mothers, vulnerable families, and to conduct public charity activities that improve people's quality of life.

This participation also aims to foster cooperation among the council's committees, provincial associations, government agencies, and private sector to volunteer, support Red Cross activities, and drive charitable work for tangible public benefit.

The 2026 Red Cross Fair, organized by the Thai Red Cross Society, will run from January 18-31, 2027 (14 days and nights) from 11:00 AM to 10:00 PM at Lumpini Park, Bangkok, under the concept "Million Hearts, Million Gifts, Million Smiles," offering diverse activities for the public to make merit and support humanitarian missions.

At the National Outstanding Mothers Council's booth, activities include selling 3,000 Thai Red Cross Society raffle tickets, lucky draws with prizes, and selling consumer goods and community products from provincial outstanding mothers associations and clubs to promote local products and create income distribution opportunities for communities.

The National Outstanding Mothers Council invites the public to participate in the booth's charitable activities to support the Thai Red Cross Society, share kindness, extend giving, and create smiles together. Visit the "Unite Hearts, Outstanding Mothers Council Helps Red Cross" booth at the 2026 Red Cross Fair from January 18-31, 2027 at Lumpini Park, Bangkok.
