A place of safety and hope…
At Beginnings Foundation (formerly Home of New Beginnings), we fight to end exploitation of women and girls in the sex trade in Thailand, through prevention, intervention, and aftercare. We believe in a holistic approach to freedom, by providing for a quality education, vocational and life skills training, spiritual mentorship, and a safe place to belong.
Projects
Project Pattaya (Featured)
Our dream is to renovate the shophouses at our Pattaya site to include a farm-to-table restaurant, which will not only provide employment for vulnerable women in the surrounding area, but will be a training ground for women to learn skills towards a new career, and a pathway to freedom from exploitation in the Pattaya sex industry.
