We are pleased to announce this year's funds raised for underprivileged children in Burma will again be made to the Burma Children Medical Fund. Thanks to your generous contributions, we will be making a transfer of $13,000 to this fund.
Kanchana Thornton and her team founded the Burma Children Medical Fund (BCMF) in Thailand in 2004 to treat some medical conditions of underprivileged children along the Burma border area.
BCMF was granted permission from the Thai government to help children coming across the border and needing complex medical care. In addition, she works with local Thai children whose families cannot afford treatment.
BCMF later branched out to offer assistance to adults as well. Since the coup in Myanmar, cases have only increased.
With your continued contributions, we can help save lives.
