Detailed description of the Caring for the Destination Initiative: 

Sayse Guest House encourages guests to help them, to help the local village in which they are situated; Ban Senevang.

Buddhism is such an important way of life in Laos with every village in the low lands of Laos having at least one temple or Wat. The temples are not only used for praying, but also, especially in remote areas, the temple is used for a meeting and community hall, a place of blessing for the new born, living and dead, and the centre of most festivals in Laos. Ban Senevang Village is no different with the community's livelihood and faith centred on their local temple.

Sayse Guest House and Resort has a donation box that guests can contribute to, with the aim of building up the local temple. Guests are also encouraged to explore the beautiful local village and to visit the temple whilst staying at Sayse. Even a short visit to the local temple will show guests how important it is to the locals and how their donation can help restore, repair and maintain the village Wat.
