Category: Milk Run

Sister Joan started the Milk Run back in 1992 and the program has been running every 2 weeks ever since. It delivers milk formula to mom’s who can not breast feed because they are HIV positive or for other reasons. The babies are entitled to 1 box of baby milk formula every 2 weeks until their 1st birthday. Some continue past that point – our oldest recipient is a 27 year old, severely handicapped girl.

The Milk Run events start every 2nd Friday at 7 am in Rang Moo community of Klong Toei slum. We finish by 10:30 am. This is a Google Maps link to where we meet at: https://maps.app.goo.gl/RCYSXM2dBkjPBF1g6

Here are the posts from past events…

    Milk Run Aug 15, 2025

    Adri and Miron came to help deliver 16  boxes of milk formula in Rong Moo and Suan Ooy.

    For those of you that remember the days of Sister Joan in Klong Toei, it will come as a shock to see our current numbers. We used to distribute 180 boxes per fortnight back in 2011….  Thai people are definitely living better, babies are not dying any more and moms are well nourished and we’ll dressed now. We rarely see the poverty we used to see in Klong Toei.

    After we finished milk formula distribution, Miron and I took the car to be washed…

    … then went shopping for the next Friday Rice Run.

    Milk Run Aug 1, 2025

    Miron and I delivered 16 boxes of milk formula and registered a new baby in Rong Moo.

    We’re seeing less and less babies born and even registered moms do not come to collect as much as they used to.

    I guess the times are changing for the better.

    Adri and Will came to help but I was late this morning. I ended up distributing milk formula by myself.

    17 boxes of milk formula were delivered and a new baby registered too. Here is a picture of new baby’s mom with his older sister…

    As often as the end of the Milk Run, Sister Joan’s old truck got a wash too… 

    Another good day in Klong Toei…
