DACF Dormitory

As promised, here is a look at the new volunteer dorm which, just a couple of months ago, was the subject of a breakfast table discussion. Completely paid for and already home to those of us who live and work here it has change the way we do things. With private space and a small kitchen, staff can now relax and have adult discussions over coffee once the children are in bed. We are very grateful to the Douglas A. Campbell Foundation for their generous donation to help pay for it.There are 4 single rooms and 2 larger dormitory rooms plus the small kitchen and 3 bathrooms.

This is the view from the porch which hopefully will not change for several years. Sure hope some of you will come out and join us for awhile now that we can make you a bit more comfortable.

Building a new dormitory

Work has begun this week on a new dormitory donated by the Lion’s Club of Taiwan. Workers and loads of supplies have arrived on the site, holes have been dug and pillars are being inserted. The new dormitory will sit opposite (and facing) the weaving center. It’s an exciting moment, a happy day for the New Wat Opot!
