Kru Legacy Fund

At Kru Muaythai Association, we believe the fighters and trainers who dedicated their lives to preserving and building the art of Muay Thai should never be forgotten. Many retired Muay Thai athletes and traditional trainers in Thailand spent decades representing the culture, values, and spirit of the sport, often with little financial security for later life. Today, many elderly kru and former fighters survive on pensions of only 600–1,000 THB (approximately $18–$32 USD) per month, despite the sacrifices they made for the art that is now celebrated around the world.

Our donation program was created to give back to these respected individuals with dignity, care, and gratitude. Contributions help provide support for daily living expenses, food, medical needs, and essential assistance for retired fighters and trainers who helped preserve authentic Muay Thai and Muay Boran for future generations. Through this initiative, we hope to unite the global Muay Thai community in honoring the people who carried Thailand’s martial heritage through dedication, hardship, and lifelong commitment.

By supporting this cause, you are not only helping an individual, you are helping preserve the heart, history, and cultural soul of Muay Thai itself.
