The Po Teck Tung Foundation signed its second Memorandum of Understanding with the Department of Women's Affairs and Family Development on July 14, 2026, to support vocational equipment and training for women, men, and families in need.

Over the past three years, the foundation has distributed vocational equipment worth over 6.2 million baht to 326 individuals and families.
