Saving Thai Elephants Concert

Lord Ganesh, the elephant-faced Hindu God whose name means “to rid the obstacles”, is very much revered in Thai society especially among entertainers, artists and business community. The Nomad, a travel & lifestyles TV show by Varin Sachdev, has been organizing the lord’s birthday celebration known as “Ganesh Chaturthi” in Thailand since 2010. In 2016, “Saving Thai Elephants”, an annual charity event on the side of Ganesh Chaturthi to raise fund for Thai Elephants Conservation was introduced. We received generous support from corporates and general public and were able to donate THB 250,000 to Thailand Elephant Research Fund in Khaoyai.

At this year’s “Saving Thai Elephants”, visually-impaired kid musicians from the Elephant Camp we supported last year (Thai Blind Orchestra) will be performing a concert together with the Fashion Showcase designed by Sumedha Sehgaland presented by 9 Leading Lady News Anchors and MCs in Thailand. The theme of the concert and fashion show will honor the legacy of Late King Bhumibhol Adulyadej     
 
Proceeds from ticket sales and donation at the event will go directly to feed elephants at Thailand Elephant Research Fund in Khaoyai.
