About Pi Somchart :
When I was about 10 years old my parents put me in to the orphanage because they are very poor, they can not support me to go to school as the other children. I was in the orphanage till I finished high school and I met a man from America in orphanage (Chris), he is a missionary working in the same orphanage I stay. One day, he took me to the University to continue to study. After I graduated English major from University, I have been teaching English in government school for 7 years, before I was started House Of Union children home.

What does the logo represent?
The triangle symbolizes the mountain where the Lahu Hill tribe children come from. Green represents life and nature. The star in the middle is symbolic of Jesus. When Jesus was born, the wise men followed the star. Jesus is with the Lahu children on the mountain. The small stars around symbolize the children and their growth when they come to HOU.
