Conflict in Myanmar has displaced nearly 3.8 million people and shattered access to healthcare and education. Partner with us today to deliver lifesaving health, relief, education, and livelihood support to local communities.
Our vision is to see empowered, thriving and self-sustaining communities in and from Myanmar.
Our mission is to restore hope, relieve suffering, and support sustainable development with vulnerable communities in and from Myanmar. We do this by providing healthcare, education, sustainable livelihoods, and humanitarian relief.
Local Community Health Workers trained by Health & Hope are a vital lifeline, delivering basic treatment and home visits directly to those in need in remote communities in Myanmar. However, global funding cuts are threatening our ability to support many of our Community Health Workers and we need your help to raise a target of £25,000 to help these workers remain equipped, supported and able to deliver life-saving care.
Your gift will provide basic and full medicine packs, equipment packs, as well as help pay monthly stipends for our community health workers
Please give today to keep Community Health Workers equipped for the families who need them now. Every day without vital supplies, training and support makes it harder for health workers to respond quickly when crisis reaches another family.
Improving access to public health and primary medical care.
Providing scholarships to talented young people from Myanmar.
Delivering relief to vulnerable communities.
Building resilience for the future.
In the early 2000s, Dr. Sasa set out to bring primary healthcare, education, and food security to Chin State, a impoverished region in Western Myanmar. Growing up, he witnessed forced labour, violence, and deaths from preventable illnesses and childbirth.
The first child from his village to attend high school in Yangon, he was later funded by his community who sold their livestock to study in India and abroad. Despite learning three new languages, he graduated at the top of his medical class.
Driven to give others similar opportunities, Dr. Sasa founded Health & Hope in 2009. He led the organisation until 2021, when he stepped down to pursue a political career.
Before the military coup in 2021, Zeya (name changed) was a policeman living in Chin State with his pregnant wife and four children. When Zeya learned that the Government had been overthrown, he knew that he and his family had to leave their home for their own safety.
Crossing the border was challenging but they arrived at a refugee camp late one night having travelled for 140 kilometres. Initially they were able to buy food and daily necessities for the family, but they soon spent all their money. With jobs scarce, the situation became very difficult for them.
“Many NGOs and supporters came to help us, but Health & Hope has been there the longest and has helped us the most. The most important things we need are livelihoods and the Food Bank. It is difficult to find money because there are no day jobs, but my husband goes to work three times a month,” says Chesa, Zeya’s wife.
Thrive is a dedicated community bringing lasting change to the people of Myanmar.
As a regular giver, your monthly gift does more than provide immediate support; it enables long-term solutions and helps us plan our work. You’ll support lifesaving healthcare, emergency relief, sustainable livelihoods, and enable life-changing education scholarships for bright young students.
In return, we’ll send you via quarterly email updates, inspiring stories, insider news, and direct updates demonstrating the impact of your generosity. Thank you.
