Nearly half of individuals and families in Myanmar currently live below the poverty line, living on less than $2.50 a day. Deepening ongoing conflict as the result of the military coup of 2021 and natural disasters have devastated the country, leaving millions without adequate food, shelter, or access to healthcare or education.
Join Thrive, our passionate community of regular givers. Your regular gift today helps us plan our work and ensures that we continue partner with local communities on the ground to deliver vital support to those who need it the most. Your gift can fund health projects providing essential basic healthcare and maternal care to pregnant women, provide education scholarships to young people unable to pursue an education in Myanmar, emergency humanitarian relief when needed and livelihood opportunities to support people to live independently once again.
We will keep you updated quarterly via email including a video to give you an insight into everyday life for the people and communities we support, and showing how your giving is helping them rebuild their lives with dignity, hope and a greater security for the future.
“The grant helps us a lot. I could buy rice, medicines, and pay school fees. I still kept a little like gold for emergency. I thank God a thousand times for all those who donated for the support of our livelihood.”
