Project Report | Mar 27, 2025
Update Report - March 2025

By Iona Proebst | Project Leader

Dear Supporters,

We would like to begin by expressing our heartfelt thanks for your unwavering support. Your generosity has driven our efforts and made a lasting impact on numerous communities and hundreds of lives. Here’s an update on the key achievements and initiatives we’ve been working on in recent months:

Partnership for IDP Camp

We've received positive feedback from the local team on the ground, who have shared that our collective contribution to the school in the Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) Camp near the Myanmar-Thailand border has been warmly welcomed and has enabled the school to continue thriving. We are thrilled that this partnership has allowed us to provide essential educational resources to displaced children, ensuring they have access to a brighter future despite the challenging circumstances they face.

Ongoing Support for Education at Koung Jor

For over 15 years (how amazing is that!), our continued support has been vital in sustaining education programmes at the Koung Jor refugee camp. We’ve ensured that English and Computer classes are running smoothly, equipping students with valuable skills for their future. Additionally, we’ve provided brand-new English textbooks that align with the local school syllabus, guaranteeing consistency and quality in education for both teachers and students.

Emergency Response in Myanmar

In response to the ongoing crisis in Myanmar, we’ve continued to allocate reserve funds to support urgent response efforts. These resources are critical for addressing immediate needs and will also be used to fund ongoing and future emergency response initiatives. Your donations have been pivotal in ensuring that these efforts continue without delay.

Project Visit to Thai/Myanmar Border

Later this year, we plan to return to the Thai-Myanmar border to reconnect with the communities and organisations that your support has helped make possible. Our last visit gave us invaluable insight into the real-world impact of our work and helped us identify new opportunities for collaboration. We are excited about the new partnerships we have created and the potential for even greater progress ahead.

Thank you once again for your incredible generosity and commitment. We wish you all a wonderful spring season (or autumn season for those down south) and look forward to keeping you updated on our progress. 

With gratitude,

The Branch Foundation Team
