Ministry of Education and Foremost Launch 6th Annual 'One Million Smiles' Project
The Thai Ministry of Education has partnered with FrieslandCampina (Thailand) to continue the 'Foremost One Million Smiles' initiative for its sixth year.
On August 13, 2026, the Thai Ministry of Education and FrieslandCampina (Thailand) Public Company Limited, the manufacturer of Foremost dairy products, officially signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to launch the sixth iteration of the 'Foremost One Million Smiles' project. According to Thai Post, this collaboration aims to continue the long-standing initiative focused on supporting Thai youth.
For residents and expatriates living in Thailand, this partnership highlights ongoing corporate social responsibility efforts within the national education sector. While the project is primarily focused on nutritional support and student welfare, such initiatives often involve school-based activities and community outreach programs that may impact local school environments or public health awareness campaigns.
Specific details regarding the exact scope of activities, the number of schools involved, or the specific regions targeted for this year’s campaign remain to be confirmed. As the project progresses, further announcements from the Ministry of Education are expected to clarify how these resources will be distributed and which specific student demographics will benefit from the sixth year of the program. Those interested in community development or educational support in Thailand may wish to monitor official government channels for updates on the implementation of these activities.
