Sisters on Samui Foundation

มูลนิธิสาวหมุยเพื่อสมุย 

Sisters on Samui Foundation is a non-profit NGO, with Charitable Foundation status.  We are committed to making a positive impact on the beautiful island of Koh Samui, through fundraising, community outreach programs and regular social events. Our first ladies lunch was held back in 1997 and since then we have brought women together for regular events and raised funds to support the Samui community.

Join us in our mission to make Koh Samui a better place for all. Together, we can create a community that thrives, connects, and supports one another.

Sisters on Samui hosts events every month to help make meaningful connections and create memorable experiences for the women living on our beautiful island. From monthly ladies lunches to the lively SOS+1 events, brain-teasing Quiz nights, wellness activities and our annual Christmas party – there’s an opportunity to meet up with new and old friends and share some good times within our vibrant community. We also welcome you to connect with us at the Marketplace by SOS, our little shop with a big heart, where you can donate or purchase pre-loved items. More information here about how to get involved with Sisters on Samui.

If you have questions, want to participate, or simply want to reach out, we’re just a message away. Visit our Contact Us page to connect with us.
