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.

During this holiday season, make a difference in the lives of Burmese migrant women! Instead of receiving another present, empower these women by asking for a donation, on your behalf, to WEDA. WEDA seeks to continue offering workshops on human and labor rights, gender discrimination and conducting weekly community outreach visits in order to document abuses and various human rights violations. Ideally, with enough funding, shelter and protection, for the Burmese women in need, will be offered.
The people of Burma (Myanmar), one of the world's poorest and most troubled countries, face many challenges - extreme poverty, deep social conflicts and failing infrastructure. The education system, undermined by decades of neglect, is unable to prepare students to tackle these challenges. This project will support 200 students from marginalized communities across Burma to reach the academic levels needed to access international university education and become catalysts of positive change.
