My first trip to this area was in 2005. I visited a refuge camp outside of Mae Sariang. Our focus was on 50 orphans who watched their parents murdered, raped or enslaved by the Burmese Army. It was heart wrenching. I took a pediatrician with me who gave the children health check up. I have returned to northern Thailand 30 times since then. I decide to live below my means to free up money to share with those in need.
As soon as I get this thing out of my eyes, I'm going to share this all over the place. God Bless you Chris, Michael, ICare John & Sally Limb and of course the volunteers and donors.
Just saw your video posted 45 minutes ago. I’m also a Canadian. I have spent time in 47 countries in the last dozen years some multiple times I have never been to Thailand, but I have a deep respect for their culture and religion, I know they are some very good people and seeing you help them in the most remote places inspires me. I hope that I can visit Thailand soon and we can collaborate and do something just like this a Christmas video like this warms my heart I love seeing the joy of children that least expected anything like this, they are the most deserving. Thank you also to the sponsor of this video and God bless his wife and his good heart and what she instilled in him to help these people there is still more to be done, and these people are so pure and deserve it. God bless and thank you for this.
Ryan, 47 countries and Thailand isn’t on your list? Oh this makes me sad as I’ve been to 30 countries only in part because I keep returning to Thailand. It’s my FAVORITE country in all of Asia. Please make it a point to help,out in the northern region because many are from Burma (now Myanmar) and cannot return to their country because it’s not safe to live there anymore due to civil war. Many have moved to Thailand. The Thai ppl are so very gracious and hard working. Please make it a priority. Thailand needs you, so do the very poor children from Myanmar
Chris you make me cry again,really you are great human being,lots of love to you and the people of thailand..merry Christmas and a happy new year 2025 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for letting me go with you on this amazing trip...spreading joy and good will to all people is the greatest gift that anyone can give...amazing video...Merry Christmas to all of you...
You Sir are an absolute legend, you really are. Please, stand proud of the things you do. I know that you are a humble soul & cannot rest on your laurels, for this, I dip my hat to you. Your videos bring a tear to my eye, it is a tear of pure happiness. I would love to do the things you do, pay it forward is a mantra I'm instilling in my kids. You are an absolute legend
Many people would think this is a hardship. Yes it would but for people who were born and grew up there, they have dreams that someday everyone of the new generation would change things to the best that they can do. I'm living in Los Angeles nowadays, your video reach me every angle of my heart. I'm so proud to be born and raised in Chiang Rai up until 26 and I'm now 33. I dream about getting back someday and do my part to improve the so call nothern Thailand to it future. Thank you for your content.
What an achievement, Chris! You and the entire team performed miracles once again! You are right, the whole world is watching... Your generosity and compassion are shining examples for us all! Thanks... 🙏🙏🙏 👍😎👍
Thank you Chris. Missed you, love you. My daughter and I were very emotional on this one. We have intention to contribute on ground level soon. Much love.
So great to have a follow up and update of your first heartbreaking video about the kids in this remote region. We visited a tribe village near Mae Hong Son last Xmas. Time to give some support again.
Chris, thank you so much for the video. It was so inspiring and you're coverage of the program can only help tremendously. Very, very well done mate. I'm wiping the tears from my eyes now.
He Lives. Good to see ya hippe. I thought you were gone forever. Thought I was going to have fine you in a Samui beach bar. Love these pay it forward heart felt videos that make you cry.
Wow I thought you had forgotten about us all little did we know you were growing a beard so you could be like Santa and help spread love and joy to those amazing kids again. Well done to you, Michael, ICare and all those others that donated and helped with this adventure.
Just watched this video, very touching what a fantastic job is being done. Actually brought tears to my eyes. How we all with out thinking take our rich western lives for granted..
Some people talk the talk. Some people walk the walk. You my friend, are a walker. Well done to you and all the people that went up and helped make this possible.
Wow Chris!❤ This was so heartwarming! Loved seeing all the kids light up 7:15 🥹💕 You are such an AMAZING & INSPIRING PERSON!! We also loved your “Santa” beard 🎅 My hubby and I just talked about you yesterday because we wanted to go to Ruam Sab Market. One time we went, we went to the wrong stall for the pad krapao. 😂 This time, we’re gonna make sure we go to your pad krapao lady! Thanks again for this amazing video and Merry Christmas to you and your family 🎄
Thank you, Chris, for this 100% authentic video. Having been part of the crew on this Icare tour, I can only say to you all, support Icare, and your support goes straight through and as Michael says, the difficult projects need the most support.
Thank you for such an amazing and emotional video. I really do appreciate you showing the world what real Thailand can be like. I would love to join you or anybody else, for that matter, on an adventure like this. Thanks again, Chris 👃
So good to see you again. And first. It's wonderful to know that you and your family are doing well. I often wonder. I have to thank you for all your videos in the past. I will be moving to Thailand in July. Something I would have never been brave enough to do. Hopefully I will be able to hook up with this charity, and see what I can do to help out. Thank you and bless you. You are the best. ❤
Chris Parker ?!?!? What a Guy ! 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻You are genuinely caring for all these people. Only guys like you can get so much donations to pay forward on UA-cam. Totally deserved and you always have great Projects ! Keep it up!
They live a hardship life, but they are also lucky they don’t live in the real world that is full of hate and wars. A big well done to you Chris and your helpers, merry Christmas everyone…❤
Agree. Some would argue (perhaps wrongly) that removal from family to fund them later with a city based income is questionable; but I see a net positive. I hope. Who will provide elderly care ? So the villages will change, yes.

Great stuff a pleasure to watch in these dark times. 🙏🏼❤️
This was a different type of video and one that is appreciated. Not all Thailand videos needs to be about girls, bars, and condos.
Chris, this is lovely to see. I had goose bumps for most of the video. God bless.
great job Chris and Merry Christmas to all !!!!!!!!
The very best UA-cam video I've ever seen. Good work guys. What an adventure! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Awesome as always.

Merry X-Mas to you and yours

Great video, mate. It's great to see you back
Great work Mate😊
Well done and great video I'm sure all agree. Would love to trek up there and visit in the new year. All the best from Chiang Mai 👍
Really lovely video! Great to see you again :-)
The more I look, the more I feel like my soul is here, or maybe in any place where there is forest. Thank you, Chris, for bringing me here.
Brought tears to my eyes Chris , rock on brother 😊
Excellent content
Great way to remember Sally.
Stunning ,all the best from Norway ❤
Spreading Positivity.
They live a hardship life, but they are also lucky they don’t live in the real world that is full of hate and wars. A big well done to you Chris and your helpers, merry Christmas everyone…❤
Agree. Some would argue (perhaps wrongly) that removal from family to fund them later with a city based income is questionable; but I see a net positive. I hope. Who will provide elderly care ? So the villages will change, yes.
❤❤❤❤❤ Thank you so Much Mr.Chris for your Kindness 🙏🏼
Glad to see you back
What an awesome video and project. I will be happy to help out some day when I am able.
god bless you all ,you are amazing 😍
Happy Christmas what a wonderful video Chris !
Epic video great work from Michael and you Chris. As a fellow Canadian i understand how important education is. This video was truly inspiring!
It is better to give than to receive. Chris, my hat is off to you. Enjoy the "helper's high" endorphin rush!
Thank you for your Give away project ka khun Chris. Thanks to all volunteers. ❤c
