Empower ethnic Burmese refugees through education
Thailand  Education
Displaced from Burma in the aftermath of atrocious human rights abuses, the Shan Refugee Community in Northern Thailand seek a brighter future through supplementary education for their children. We help to support these aspirations through funding the stipends of a Project Coordinator and Computer Teacher, school uniforms, stationary and books. In partnership with the community members, we develop extra curricular activities aimed at promoting self-esteem and developing new skills. project reportread updates from the field

Solar lighting for 600 Burmese Refugees - Thailand
Thailand  Environment
The Branch Foundation plans to provide every family in a refugee camp of 600 residents in Thailand with solar lighting as they are prohibited from receiving electricity from the main grid system. This will ensure sustainable and environmentally friendly power for vulnerable people. The residents previously had to rely on kerosene lamps and candles which posed fire risks in their thatched houses, was an expensive form of lighting and prevented children from completing their studies at night. project reportread updates from the field

Given the success of these funded projects and the organization's positive track-record, TBF is looking to expand its regional scope and launch projects in different areas. In order to make this possible, TBF needs funding for research into new South-East Asian marginalized communities and organizational capacity building. project reportread updates from the field

Emergency Relief Fund in South-East Asia.
Thailand  Children
You, as a donor, can really make a difference to local communities basic needs and rights! Sometimes everyone needs a helping hand and the communities we work with in South-East Asia are no different, many of whom are lacking in even the most basic of necessities. We work with communities that get little support from main funding organisations, and it is up to us to collectively make sure emergency situations can quickly be rectified and provide stability in people's lives. project reportread updates from the field
