On 26 January 2024, Asst. Prof. Dr. Pavin Chinachoti, Dean of the School of Management Science, represented Sukhothai Thammathirat Open University in making donations of unused medicine and paper and cloth bags for reuse to Umphang Hospital and nearby hospitals in need.
Umphang Hospital is the district hospital of Umphang in Tak province in the North of Thailand. The hospital is responsible for over 91,000 patients, out of which 42,000 have no access to health care welfare. The medicine donation will help out a lot of people rather than have them go to waste. The hospital’s patients can use the donated bags to carry home the prescribed medicine.
This was the sixth donation made under the Sustainability Awareness-Raising campaigns at Sukhothai Thammathirat Open University. Those interested can contact the Department of International Affairs at 0 2504 7173 for more information regarding all ongoing campaigns.
