How can you donate?

Important information

Thai banks don’t provide the name of the sender. In order to meet the Thai Revenue Department requirements we request that when you transfer money, it is imperative that you send a copy of the transfer slip/deposit slip or, if your bank does not provide this, a screenshot of the bank page that shows the amount, transfer/deposit date, and your name to treasurer@fercthailand.com.

There is a separate account for sponsorship donations. Details will be sent to you after you have applied to be a sponsor. If you lost this information and want to transfer/deposit sponsorship donation, click here.
