I need new volunteers! Took wan (everyday) the munchkins ask if Teacha “have friend”. If you are interested in coming to Thailand to volunteer (or are here already) email me at info@makeourday.org

If you can’t quite make it here, Mai Ben Rai (no worries) you can still help us out. See staff profiles below to get an idea of what others have done to contribute their talents to our mission. If you’re passionate about non profit work and have some time to give, I’d love to hear from you too: info@makeourday.org

Love from Munchkinland,

Teacha Katie

Teacha Katie, Founder

cropped-image29.jpg
Katie Dillman graduated Stephens College in 2009 with a degree in Fashion Marketing.  After a few years of working in a buying office it became evident that 40 more years behind a computer was not going to cut it and she booked a one way ticket to Thailand.
As “Teacha” she is inspired daily by the curiosity, creativity, and resilience of her students.  Make Our Day was founded in 2014 to ensure these qualities continue to thrive in students who are forced to grow up too quickly and provide educational alternatives in sub par school districts.
Nicknamed Dill, she is frequently losing shoes and keys, may or may not be the real Elsa, and is definitely “ting tong mak mak”

Brittany Behnen graduated from OTC in 2014. After taking some time off, she has recently begun attending Grand Canyon University, seeking her Bachelor’s in Communications.

It was a trip to Uganda three years ago that changed the trajectory of her life. It ignited her joy for far-away places, and it was from that point forward that she knew she wanted to work in non-profit and love on kids forever.
Brittany loves adventure, sports, music, sleeping in hammocks and Harry Potter weekends.

Mailyn graduated from Missouri State University in 2012 with a degree in Marketing and will complete her Masters of Business Administration this December. For the past few years, she has been working as a professional in the field of Human Resources.

Inspired by helping others in need, Mailyn sought an opportunity to work with a non-profit for her final semester at MSU. Teacha Katie’s passion and enthusiasm for Make Our Day sold her on working with this organization.

If you can’t seem to find Mailyn, she is most likely curled up somewhere completely lost in a novel.
