One of the least reported issues on the world stage is the internal conflict within the borders of Burma. Over 50 years of civil war in one of the most impoverished countries in the world, has left millions of people displaced or in hiding. Many of the displaced people have fled to Thailand for refuge.

Global Neighbors Canada is working with the orphaned and displaced children in the border town of Mae Sot, Thailand.

We have built an orphanage for 180 children, complete with kitchen facilities, washrooms and an assembly area. We also completed a Daycare/ Junior Orphanage with 80 children in the daycare and a capacity of 40 children in the Junior Orphanage.

We are working with the Burmese Migrant Education Committee which is in charge of 50 schools with 5000 children in attendance.
