More Information About this Project

Project Needs and Beneficiaries

Whispering Seed runs a Children’s Home and a Community Education Centre for abandoned children and local communities. The children are all under 10 years old and have been abandoned and rescued from workhouses or from abuse. The local communities who the charity provides vocational training to are displaced people and other ethnic minorities (victims of the conflict on the Burmese border), some of whom have HIV/AIDS.

Activities

The bridge foundations are in place; what we urgently need is funding to complete it. We will construct an 80 metre bridge, made out of local timber and bamboo, and train a minimum of 12 local labourers to construct and maintain the bridge.

Funding Information

This project has been retired and is no longer accepting donations.
