Challenge

For 50 years the Myanmar generals have oppressed minority citizens, stealing their land, burning their villages, driving them to the borders and out of their homeland. The government denies them education and healthcare. Those that manage to escape to the border town of Mae Sot, Thailand find help at NGO run schools. These refugees live in camps and hidden in the hills of eastern Thailand. Their children suffer more frequently from untreated heart disease. They need your help.

Solution

Due to the primitive conditions imposed on Burmese farmers and refugees, heart disease is much more prevalent among their children. In 2020, China Cal will screen the hearts of ten thousand Burmese refugee school children and find support for surgical cures for all those found with heart disease. We need your help now. Please donate to this project now.

Long-Term Impact

This project will greatly diminish deaths and disability from congenital and rheumatic heart disease among Burmese refugees.
