Had an amazing weekend helping support Free Bird Cafe by sponsoring the food for their birthday party, to help promote themselves to a wider audience. Also helping, Rasta Mama Bakery sponsoring the cakes, along with some of the Nava teachers and many volunteers from around the local area. All making this event a day to remember!
Free Bird Cafe is an organic vegetarian and vegan charity cafe established for a love of healthy, whole, local homemade food, coffee and smoothies and to support the work of Thai Freedom House; a language and arts community learning center for Indigenous Peoples and Burmese refugees. 100% of the profits from the cafe go to Thai Freedom House.
Here are a few of the pictures we took but you can also check out the local magazine City Life's page for more pictures.

You don't need to be a student to enjoy the facilities of Free Bird as little Tilly and Leela prove... I think they're playing hide out in a den
