OUR STORY

Caring Bear was founded by students from the International Community School (ICS) of Bangkok who were inspired by the school’s welcoming environment and the meaningful friendships formed within its community. Seeing the positive impact of inclusion and connection, we set out to create more opportunities for children with neurodiversity to build friendships, develop confidence, and feel a true sense of belonging.

What began as a small student initiative has grown into a movement that promotes empathy, creativity, and inclusion through activities across Thailand. We collaborate with local organizations to create music, art, sports, and community events that encourage connection, confidence, and friendship.

We are also developing the Caring Bear Center — a welcoming space where neurodiverse youth and volunteers can come together through crafts, baking, games, and other activities while building practical life skills and meaningful relationships.

Caring Hearts, Helping Hands, Changing Lives — Let’s build a more caring and neurodiversity-friendly Thailand.
