Working together
Our Partners
HAEA delivers its programs through partnerships: organizations that provide space, expertise, or local reach in the communities we serve, from a hostel classroom in Koh Tao to indigenous-community NGOs in Malaysia.
Current partners
Wonderland Jungle Hostel
Koh Tao, Thailand. HAEA’s operational base in Thailand. Hosts the weekly in-person English classes and currently houses two students completing their GED.
Mee Fah Language School
Koh Tao, Thailand. Delivers ESL certification and language courses for HAEA students, including Vanisa and Nazira.
Perak Women for Women (PWW)
Ipoh, Malaysia. Co-delivers the Happy Readers literacy program and the Human Rights Workshops. Hosts a device-donation point at its Ipoh office.
SUKA Society
Malaysia. Delivers teacher-training courses, including the program that trained Tira, now HAEA’s Education Coordinator.
Koh Tao Swim
Koh Tao, Thailand. Sponsored swimming lessons for HAEA students.

What partnership looks like
Partnerships range from shared physical space (Wonderland Jungle Hostel’s classroom), to co-delivered programs (PWW, SUKA Society), to sponsored services (Koh Tao Swim, Mojo Divers, Mee Fah). Each partner brings something HAEA doesn’t have on its own: a location, a credential, or local trust. HAEA brings volunteer teachers, materials, and funding.
For CSR managers and organizations
If your organization wants a concrete, traceable way to fund education in Southeast Asia, there are three direct options:
- Fund a program. Sponsor one of HAEA’s six program areas (see /programs/) for a term or a year, with reporting back on the students it reaches.
- Donate devices. Used laptops and tablets go directly to HAEA’s Digital Education program for students in areas with limited connectivity. Ship to our Ipoh or Koh Tao drop points.
- Staff volunteering. Send employees to teach or mentor, in person at Wonderland Jungle Hostel or remotely over Zoom, through our volunteer program.
