PACS turned 25 this year. On Monday 22 September we marked it with a party at Concierge in Hin Kong: live music, a DJ, dancers, a raffle, an auction and a lot of people in one place.
Between the party and the campaigns running alongside it, ฿143,534.69 was raised for the stray dogs and cats of Koh Phangan.
That came from raffle tickets and donations on the night, t-shirt sales, the online birthday campaign, and Ita’s donation appeal.
Thank you to Concierge
Concierge hosted the whole evening and donated 20% of drink sales to PACS.
The raffle prizes
More than 120 prizes went into the raffle, every one of them donated by a business or practitioner on the island. Kite surfing, massage, Muay Thai lessons, padel, diving, pilates, yoga, coffee, dinner, a round of mini golf, and a lot more besides.
Thank you to everyone:

Cake, decorations and t-shirts
Birthday cakes from @youandmecafe.phangan and Nira’s Home Bakery. Decorations from @partyrepublic.shop. The 25th anniversary t-shirts were printed by LangNgan T-Shirt Printing.
Thank you as well to everyone who gave their time to help on the night.
T-shirts are still available
There are some 25th anniversary t-shirts left. If you would like one, get in touch.
What it goes towards
A night like this makes a real difference. The clinic costs over ฿250,000 a month to run, and that does not pause between fundraisers. What was raised goes into caring for the animals and continuing our mission. Thank you so much.
25 years
PACS has been running on Koh Phangan since 2001. A night like this is a reminder of where the work actually comes from: the businesses, the musicians, the people who turned up, the people who donated from the other side of the world.
Thank you, genuinely.
If you would like to keep it going, you can donate here at any time.
