Unfortunately, Maung Maung has been unable to meet his commitments on a number of occasions. This has resulted in the termination of financial assistance. Thank you all for supporting this community and believing in this project I've set up. Unfortunately it has to stop from October 2024 as I can not guarantee that all the donated money will be used properly. We were able to help some households, and I'm grateful that some of you have donated so we could accomplish all of this. I could not have done this on my own.
As of 22 October 2024 there is a balance of the donated funds left ($203.16 USD), and I expect to be able to help refugees from in Myanmar, living in Thailand sometime in January 🙏 stay tuned for that.

Any donated money for Myanmar after the 22-Oct-'24 will go towards a refugee camp for Burmese people camp, and I'll be able to make a video about this to create more awareness of on what is going on.

Stay tuned for that ❤️

Heavy rainfall and strong winds has made it more difficult to live in such circumstances. The most important thing in this month is to have a dry home, food, and water.

July 2024

The month July and August can be the hardest months for the people in the outskirts of Yangon. They have heavy rainfall during this period and not everyone is able to make enough money to feet there family. Due to the inflation rice got very expensive for the people who live below the poverty line

Even though the local community has maybe different priorities. I try to motivate them to keep their streets clean as they are living on squated land.
