Our Work in Myanmar
Myanmar is a very beautiful country now tragically torn by civil war. We have many great opportunities and are helping orphanages that are struggling for food and live in very difficult conditions. It is where the vision for Orphan’s Hope began.
Many orphanages lacking funds for education have received school uniforms, supplies, backpacks, bicycles, and entry fees. We’ve drilled freshwater wells where they needed clean water. Children previously cold now have blankets to keep them warm. Fruit trees and vegetable gardens were planted where orphans rarely had fruit. For protein, successful chicken, fish, or goat farms have been established. Lastly, where children need housing and improved living conditions, partners like you have been a tremendous blessing improving their homes. We are praying for people like you to join us in this great work that is transforming orphans’ lives.
Our Garden Home orphanage in Myanmar has a big impact in the lives of our 65 orphans and children from many other orphanages. Garden Home is on a beautiful 27 acre peninsula on a river, with many fruit trees, veggie gardens, and great places for the children to run and play. Children from other orphanages love to come to Garden Home for camps, summer school, day programs, sports, a big yearly Christmas celebration for up to fifteen hundred orphans, and more.
