Your Impact in Myanmar: Children Go Back to School Post the Earthquake

Imagine facing a choice no parent should ever have to make: sending your child to school or putting food on the table. For many families in the poorest communities of Mahar Aung Myae and Chanmaya Tharsi in Myanmar, this heartbreaking reality has been their daily struggle. They've lost everything, and even the basic cost of uniforms and school supplies felt impossible. On top of that, damaged school buildings added another layer of fear – the worry of being asked to contribute to repairs they simply couldn't afford.

This is where you stepped in.

A Dream Made Possible by You

At Freedom World, we believe every child deserves the chance to learn and thrive. That's why we’re so proud to support organizations like Baan Unrak Children’s Home and their dedicated ground team, Green Island. They couldn't stand by and watch these children be left behind.

Because of your generous donations through several platforms, Baan Unrak was able to collect the funds needed to make a real difference. The Green Island team, with their youngest volunteers traveling all the way from Yangon to Mandalay and then to Thanlattmaw (West), tirelessly purchased essential school supplies.

It was a true community effort. Parents pitched in, and even the little ones contributed in their own ways. But ultimately, it was the unwavering dedication of the Green Island team, fueled by your support, that ignited a new hope. Parents began to dream alongside their children – dreams of a brighter future and restored dignity.

More Than Just Supplies: A Day of Joy

The operation was massive, requiring incredible organization, and it was handled with dedication and care by the young volunteers. They meticulously gathered student names, prepared individual packages, and then, the moment arrived.

What unfolded wasn’t just a distribution; it was a celebration! The Green Island team poured their hearts into the event, filling the air with music, songs, and games. The atmosphere was electric with pure joy. For so many of these little ones, going to school had been a distant dream. The gathering of students and parents buzzed with energy. It was the perfect opportunity for Cirasmita (Daw Khine Zar Tin Win), the inspiring leader of Green Island, to deliver a powerful message. She spoke with conviction about the transformative power of education, emphasizing it as the only true path to elevating their lives and building a better future. Her words resonated deeply, reminding parents not to give up, to stand strong, and to fight for their children's right to education, no matter the obstacles.
