I founded this organization with my best friend Shannon Kalayanamitr.  Party 4 Charity, is a collective group of individuals with an idealistic viewpoint towards making a difference in the world.  With a concentration on Thailand and the neighboring regions our dynamic team consists of exceptional individuals, all of whom have extensive resumes in raising funds for various charities. Party 4 Charity says it all. It’s really that simple! All you have to do is party, and your proceeds go directly to charity. Plus, it creates awareness for the cause at hand while enjoying a night out with beautiful people of like minds. Each one of our events benefits a different charitable cause or organization. In order to bring attention to the causes and to raise funds for the organization we are helping, we theme all our events to reflect the cause itself.

In the past we’ve raised a lot of money for orphanages and children with special needs. Our next even is scheduled for beginning of 2012.

Being a big animal lover, I am a spokesperson for SCAD (formerly known as Soi Dog Rescue), an organization that ensures animal welfare on the streets of Bangkok. One of the projects that I am involved in is a Neuter Your Pet Campaign. The message of this campaign is: One of the very best ways to curb the number of stray cats and dogs living a terrible existence in temples or on the streets of Thailand, is to prevent the breeding of owned pets. Accidental litters from owned pets are nearly always unwanted and find themselves abandoned, adding to the number of strays. Here’s what YOU can do to stop this tragedy from happening: Neuter Your Pets!

I also encourage people to adopt stray animals as their pets instead of buying them.  Stray cats and dogs make great pets, and appreciate you giving them a gift of a loving home. SCAD runs an adoption program, where I got my beautiful cat Tammy (pictured here).

In May 2011, I traveled to the Maldives to attend the Ozone2Climate Technology Road show, on behalf of UNEP as a celebrity ambassador, to help introduce new technologies that are environmentally and ozone-friendly. I recorded a public service announcement to encourage people to be aware when buying home appliances.

My work to help stop global warming and ozone depletion has not stopped here.  I will continue to work with UNEP on various projects to bring awareness to the public.

As an advocate for animal rights and wildlife conservation, I greatly support the WWF organization. In the past I have worked with WWF Greater Mekong division to put a stop to animal trafficking of endangered species such as the Tiger and the Asian Elephant.  I have attended events and rallies organized by WWF and Traffic organizations.

Earth Hour is a global event created by WWF that usually takes place at the end of March every year. It is an initiative to save electricity and get people used to the idea of always turning off unnecessary lights at home or at work. I have attended Earth Hour in Bangkok for the last 3 years as a celebrity ambassador of this wonderful event.
