Our story
Reaching, teaching and helping
Mae Sai is the northernmost town in Thailand, a busy border crossing to Tachileik in Myanmar and a short drive from Laos. Thai families, hill-tribe villages and many Burmese migrants live side by side here — and many young people grow up with few chances to study or find good work.
KMI-Foundation Thailand is the Thai foundation of Kingdom Mission International, a missions network that trains and sends local leaders across Thailand, Myanmar, Laos and Pakistan. In Mae Sai, that faith takes practical shape: free classes, school partnerships, care for families in crisis, and partnership with local churches.
We are Christians, and we serve everyone. Our classes and help are free and never depend on what someone believes.
