Small Actions, Big Impact

Supporting the Island’s Heart: Its People

Don Daeng Island is not just a beautiful place — it’s home to warm, welcoming communities who have lived here for generations, preserving their traditions and simple way of life. Visitors often remark that the most memorable part of their stay is not just the sunsets or the sandy paths, but the smiles of the island’s children and the quiet kindness of its villagers.

For those who wish to give back during or after their visit, there are ongoing social initiatives you can support. These projects aim to improve everyday life on the island — from renovating schools to building essential facilities — while respecting the community’s culture and needs.

With the help of generous guests and the coordination of La Folie Lodge, small contributions have already made a meaningful difference on Don Daeng.

🌱 What Are These Social Initiatives?

Here, even modest donations can go a long way. A recent example: thanks to visiting donors and the support of La Folie Lodge, a brand-new toilet block was built at the local school, improving hygiene and dignity for over 100 children. A simple yet impactful improvement to daily life.

Other past efforts have included repairing school roofs, providing educational materials, and helping the most vulnerable families with essential needs.
