In the past The Grey Man have utilised hotels and guest houses as accommodation for rescued children, however these have always been an ad hoc measure. Over the past eighteen months the Thai government's handling of trafficking and child abuse cases has improved dramatically. The Grey Man now feels confident enough to pass children on to the authorities and government-run centers. The Grey Man have also investigated the centers run by various non-government organisations and are happy to support the costs of any rescued children who are sent to those centers.

By utilising existing facilities rather than spending money on aftercare infrastructure, The Grey Man can now focus on what we do best ... child rescue.

In saying this, The Grey Man recognises that in order to prevent the trafficking of children, we need to contribute to combating poverty . Reducing poverty will contribute to eliminating the attraction of selling children to make money.

The Rotary organisation has now approved a number of The Grey Man projects under their Rotary Australia World Community Service (RAWCS). Any donations to these projects are tax deductible. Projects for 2009/2010 include the following:
