Feeding families in their time of need.
Donation protected
Celebrity Ink's heart and soul originated in the beautiful country of Thailand seven years ago surrounded and supported by the Thai community. Over the past few years, as our brand has grown, the encouragement and positivity of the Thai, Myanmar, Indonesian, Vietnam and Pilipino people has never wavered, and in the face of this current global COVID-19 crisis, we recognise we could not just stand by and do nothing. As a worldwide brand with not a single studio door open, the Celebrity Ink team are making it our mission to use this time to improve the circumstances of those less fortunate as ourselves. We may not have jobs, but we have food in our bellies and a roof over our head. The Thailand and Philippine communities aren't so lucky. Within the boundaries of Patong, Kuta, Siargao and Ho Chi Minh are some of the country's poorest communities residing in shantytowns with little to eat.
WHAT WE'RE DOING
Dave from the Halfway Inn and our team are on the ground helping these communities by putting together bags of basic staple foods with the essentials for survival. We're compiling around 200 bags a day and hand-delivering them to the poorest families, these bags contain rice, noodles, eggs, glucose biscuits, fresh drinking water and (when available) vegetables.
Dave has sustained this himself with limited donations for the past few weeks, but this cannot be a short term stint. We are committed to delivering these essential packages to make a real difference, and this could mean six months until the community can get back on their feet "business as usual".
HOW MUCH IT COSTS
It's costing us about 70 baht per food parcel and we're preparing 200 parcels a day (14,000 baht a day). In Australian dollars, this is about $683 every day to deliver sustenance to those living in poverty. Over three months, we're looking at $63,500 to keep this effort up.
HOW YOU CAN HELP
Celebrity Ink understands that times are tough for many people at the moment, however, when faced with such adversity, we urge everyone to stand up and ‘make your mark’ to show the best of humanity and support those living in poverty who do not have the same access to food and resources as we do in Australia. When times get tough, they are always tougher somewhere else, and helping others can put our own challenges into perspective.
With a single bag costing $3.42AUD – less than the price of a takeaway coffee – you could literally donate your change to make a huge difference to a family in need, while a donation of just $50 could help 14 different families.
