Thank you to everyone who continues to support the Backpack Health Worker Teams.
This spring, we provided our annual support to the health worker teams serving remote communities along the Thailand-Burma border. These teams continue to deliver essential healthcare in areas where access to medical services remains extremely limited.
We are also pleased to report a small but meaningful expansion in our training efforts. With your support, the number of medics participating in our public health training program has increased from 20 to 21. Investing in local health workers strengthens the long-term capacity of communities to address their own healthcare needs and improves access to care for thousands of people living in isolated areas.
In addition to supporting healthcare, we continue to assist educational initiatives in the region. Access to education remains a critical need for many displaced and underserved children, and we are grateful to be able to contribute to programs that help keep students in school.
Thank you for making this work possible. Your support helps sustain both healthcare and educational opportunities for communities facing extraordinary challenges.
