Update 2024-2025
This year WWM have 1 student on a year 12 scholarship at BHSOH and 1 student completing year 12 at Regents International School in Pattaya, on an International school scholarship. We are proud of our students who graduated last year, or sat exams and moved to post year 12 study.
WWM are no longer awarding new scholarships, instead are working directly with the schools and organisations to assist in the development of vocational training to give students the tools and qualifications to find proper work.
WWM are also working with Community Partners to improve the conditions of young people living on the Thai-Myanmar border. Please refer to the Community Partners page.

Mentoring
WWM volunteers visit Mae Sot Migrant Learning Centres throughout the school year mentoring students with their Individual Development Plans, guiding them in planning to have realistic and achievable goals.
WWM began mentoring in 2018 with our scholarship students to provide information on school choices, goal setting and preparing resumes.
The mentoring program continues to grow and now includes students from various Migrant Learning
Centres in cooperation with school administrators.
The purpose of this program is to encourage and coach students:
-
To set goals and plan out the steps to achieve their goals.
-
To research their options for schools, training, scholarships.
-
To understand the Mentoring motto “MY Future is MY Responsibility”
