Now a well-established yoga school in Southern Thailand, One Yoga recognizes its capacity and responsibility to give back to those who need it most. This is why we have launched The Future Project, focusing our efforts on supporting Thai orphanages and education institutes.
The project’s name is straightforward, underscoring the idea that children hold the potential for tomorrow.
Our goal is to assist in improving the current living conditions of the most vulnerable ones through material support and spiritual practice, leading to a fuller, more promising future for all.
Located in Ratchaburi, DWS is led by Buddhist nun Dr. Aunampai Passakchai and offers over 1,000 underserved girls free, high-quality education since 1990. Beyond the Thai national curriculum, DWS incorporates meditation, yoga, arts, STEM, and vocational training, fostering well-rounded individuals.
The school instills Buddhist values of compassion and integrity, enabling 90% of graduates to attend university, far exceeding the national 5% among low-income students. The school, supported by the Royal Patronage of Her Royal Highness Princess Soamsawali Krom Muen Suddhanarinatha, ensures these girls lead self-sufficient, empowered lives.

Baan San Fan Orphanage, located in Thailand’s Phang Nga countryside, stands as a haven for children affected by the 2004 tsunami. Founded by Sam and Gai, it transformed from a temporary shelter into a permanent home for children burdened by poverty and abandonment.
Surrounded by organic farms and supported by the community, the orphanage provides more than just shelter; it offers a sense of family and a prospect for a brighter future. The orphanage faces financial struggles and urgent renovation needs to maintain its operations. This critical situation calls for a united effort to sustain this sanctuary of hope.
