Hill tribe children supported by Tigerland Rice Farm community projects
Empowering the next generation

Every stay here plants something bigger than rice

Tigerland is a social business first. Our commitment goes beyond eco-tourism — it's about lasting change for hill tribe families in Chiang Rai.

Education is the key to breaking the cycle of poverty and empowering the next generation to lead bold changes that can uplift their families and their wider community. We're passionate about giving hill tribe children the tools and resources they need to build a brighter future — and every guest who books a stay is part of making that happen.

School essentials provided by Tigerland Rice Farm

School essentials for needy students

Many hill tribe families struggle to afford basic school supplies. We provide free uniforms, belts, shoes, and school bags — removing barriers to regular attendance and giving children the confidence to show up and belong.

Village school library built with support from Tigerland Rice Farm

Building libraries & English literacy

Learning English opens doors to the wider world. We've built libraries in four village schools, stocked with storybooks donated by our guests — equipping children with the language skills to thrive in a connected world.

Raise-a-Piggy financial education project at Tigerland Rice Farm

Raise-a-Piggy financial education

Financial literacy is often overlooked in school. Our "Raise-a-Piggy" project teaches saving, budgeting, and entrepreneurial thinking through the hands-on work of raising and selling piglets.

Our community projects, in their own words

Raise-a-Piggy

What happens to families when you give a piglet?

A short documentary by OurBetterWorld.org on how the Raise-a-Piggy project changes lives.

A vision for the future

Our community projects are built with a long-term vision: to help these children become leaders and changemakers within their own communities. With education, financial literacy, and a strong sense of identity, we believe they can uplift their families and drive the sustainable development of the entire region.

Every stay at Tigerland Rice Farm contributes to these projects. Booking a farmstay isn't just a vacation — it's a small, direct part of a child's education.
