Our Passion
Since 2004, we have traveled to Myanmar (referred to in the United States as Burma) to provide humanitarian assistance to the people of Burma. During these years, we have been involved in a variety of projects in Burma including but not limited to: 1) providing food, clothing, shelter and medical supplies to abandoned and orphaned children; 2) participating in the delivery of vocational training programs for the older children in such skill areas as sewing and technology; 3) coordinating the establishment of a dairy farm to provide milk for the children in the orphanages, much needed income for the orphanages and to provide an opportunity to learn about an agricultural business; 4) initiating and enhancing small business opportunities through a small loans program among the villages; 5) developing neighborhood Christian schools in the poorest sections of the city of Yangon where education is treasured, but beyond the financial reach of the vast majority of the people, and 6) helping to relocate refugees from Burma into the United States.
Each year, the opportunities for helping the people of Burma not only increase, but become more challenging. Burma is one of the world's most impoverished, undeveloped, and isolated countries. The totalitarian government is under the direction of a military junta considered by international experts to be one of the most oppressive regimes in the world. |
