(SeaPRwire) – EBC Financial Group is strengthening its dedication to Bangkok’s “One Baht School,” providing vital nutrition and care for close to 2,000 children residing in slum communities. This effort aligns with EBC’s fundamental principle of offering sustained, long-term assistance to vulnerable groups, rather than relying on single donations.
BANGKOK, May 20, 2026 — EBC Financial Group (EBC) recently revisited the Klong Toey community to solidify its collaboration with the Duang Prateep Foundation (Slum Child Care Foundation – FSCC). This partnership moves beyond conventional one-off donations, adopting a strategy of “continuous presence” and unwavering support for the city’s most disadvantaged children.
Within the densely populated environment of Bangkok’s largest slum, the “One Baht School” functions as a crucial haven for approximately 2,000 children, ranging from four months to five years old, on a daily basis. These children frequently face significant risks, including malnutrition, inadequate care, and unstable home environments where consistent meals are not assured.
More Than Just a Single Visit
EBC’s approach to corporate social responsibility (CSR) is designed to deliver consistent, beneficial impacts to the community, moving away from short-term activities. During their recent visit, EBC team members personally distributed essential supplies, such as rice, snacks, and beverages, directly to the community’s caregivers.
“A company’s true value is demonstrated not only by its global market presence but also by its response to the world’s most vulnerable populations,” stated Pookky Nutthaporn, Marketing Manager, EBC Financial Group Thailand. “We firmly believe that genuine responsibility involves recognizing a need and being prepared to pause, humble ourselves, and contribute in any way we can.”

The Enduring Legacy of the “One Baht School”
This initiative pays tribute to the enduring legacy of Kru Prateep Ungsongtham Hata, who began educating local children for a nominal fee of 1 Baht per day in 1968. Today, the Duang Prateep Foundation operates four daycare centers, guided by the principle that while children cannot control their circumstances at birth, society has the power to decide how to support them.
EBC’s support for these centers represents a localized extension of its broader global mission, which includes safeguarding 1.67 million individuals from malaria in collaboration with the United to Beat Malaria program. In 2026, EBC served as a Gold Sponsor for the Move Against Malaria 5K (MAM5K) Virtual event, engaging staff worldwide. EBC also extended its partnership with the program by an additional three years.
EBC’s involvement is intended to establish a stable foundation that enables children to overcome their initial disadvantages. By supporting daily nutrition and developmental activities, EBC aims to empower these children to potentially become future doctors, teachers, and engineers, or even to return to their communities as the next generation of caregivers.
“Meaningful change doesn’t always require grand gestures,” Pookky added. “Because your small actions can represent a significant step forward in someone’s life.”
EBC encourages everyone to participate in creating opportunities for children.
Together, Let’s Build the Future.
