Planting the Seeds of a New Hope

Our vision is to make the most significant impact on the orphan community in Myanmar by delivering quality programs that empower them to prosper and become successful, contributing citizens.

We firmly believe that every child, regardless of their early life circumstances, deserves the fundamental opportunity to reach their full potential. Our commitment extends far beyond simply providing basic necessities; we are dedicated to offering comprehensive support that fosters holistic development. This includes ensuring access to quality education, essential healthcare, practical vocational training, and vital psychosocial support, all meticulously tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual child.

By investing deeply in the growth and well-being of these young individuals, we aim to equip them with the tools and resilience needed to overcome adversity. Our programs are designed not just to address immediate needs but to cultivate essential life skills, critical thinking, and a strong sense of self-worth. We strive to create an environment where these children feel secure, valued, and empowered to dream big and work towards those dreams. This long-term perspective is crucial for breaking cycles of poverty and disadvantage.

#Ultimately, our goal is to enable these young people to integrate successfully into their communities and contribute positively to the future of Myanmar. We envision a generation of empowered individuals who are not only self-sufficient but also active participants in building a more prosperous and equitable society. Through mentorship, community engagement, and opportunities for leadership, we aim to nurture a sense of responsibility and belonging, ensuring they become valuable assets to their nation.

The success of our vision hinges on collaborative efforts, community involvement, and sustainable strategies. We are committed to working closely with local communities, government bodies, and other humanitarian organizations to maximize our reach and effectiveness. By building strong partnerships and fostering a culture of compassion and support, we believe we can truly transform the lives of orphaned children in Myanmar, giving them the bright future they deserve.

The Pilliars of Hope that Guide Us

These core values represent our organization to the world

The Mary K. Yap Foundation firmly upholds these three core pillars, Unity, Excellence, and Integrity, in our everyday actions and decisions.

These core values represent our organization to the world.

#Unity is one of the most fundamental and guiding principles that any successful organization must embody in order to deliver its mission effectively. At the Mary K. Yap Foundation, unity is not just a value—it is a way of life. We believe that our collective strength lies in our ability to come together as one, regardless of our backgrounds. Our foundation brings together a diverse group of passionate volunteers, professionals, and supporters from various cultures, religions, languages, and nationalities. This diverse community unites with a shared purpose: to serve orphaned and vulnerable children with love, compassion, and commitment. Unity strengthens our foundation at every level. It encourages teamwork, builds bridges across differences, and fosters a sense of belonging for everyone involved. By working together in harmony, we can overcome challenges, celebrate achievements, and continue to build a resilient network of support for the children in our care. It is this unity that creates a welcoming, inclusive, and collaborative environment where every voice matters and every effort counts.

Excellence is the standard that drives every aspect of our work. It reflects our deep commitment to the children we serve and to the mission we uphold. At the Mary K. Yap Foundation, we believe that children—especially those who have lost their parents—deserve the highest level of care, attention, and opportunity. Therefore, we strive to pursue excellence in everything we do: in our programs, in our decision-making, in our communication, and in the services we deliver. Excellence is not just an expectation—it is a responsibility. We continuously evaluate and improve our performance, learning from challenges and celebrating progress. We invest in training, development, and innovation so that our staff and volunteers are always equipped to provide outstanding care and leadership. Through our commitment to quality, we are able to offer impactful programs, compassionate support, and life-changing opportunities to the children who rely on us. Excellence ensures that our actions not only meet but exceed the standards of ethical care, accountability, and service.

Integrity is the moral compass that guides every decision we make and every action we take. It is the foundation of trust between the foundation, the children we serve, our donors, and our partners. At the Mary K. Yap Foundation, we uphold the highest standards of honesty, transparency, and ethical behavior. We believe that true integrity means doing the right thing—even when no one is watching—and standing by our principles even when it is difficult. We are fully transparent in our operations, including the management of resources, the delivery of services, and our communication with all stakeholders. We respect the dignity of every child and ensure that their rights, safety, and privacy are always protected. Our donors and supporters trust us because we provide clear, honest reporting and are accountable for every contribution we receive.

Myanmar-Orphan Project for All

MKY Foundation: A Hope for All Orphans

#The Mary K. Yap Foundation is committed to its mission of transforming the lives of Myanmar’s orphaned children by empowering them to become independent and productive members of society. The Foundation believes that every orphan, no matter their background, deserves a future filled with opportunity, dignity, and hope. By focusing on long-term development rather than short-term aid, the Foundation aims to invest in the next generation of Myanmar’s youth, giving them the tools to rise above their circumstances and grow into capable, contributing citizens.

One of the upcoming projects “a hope for all orphans” initiative through the “Myanmar Orphans – www.myanmarorphans.org website is  designed to expand awareness and channel meaningful support to orphaned and disadvantaged children across Myanmar. It aims to help improve their learning potential, encourage intellectual growth, and create pathways for academic and social achievement. Ultimately, the project strives to equip these children with the confidence, knowledge, and resilience needed to lead responsible and impactful lives in Myanmar society.

The Myanmar Orphans project includes a variety of core programs that address critical needs. These encompass efforts in education, nutrition and food development, sustainable living solutions, social welfare outreach, and disaster support assistance. Each program is designed to break down barriers that prevent orphaned children from accessing opportunities commonly available to others. By doing so, the Foundation will work toward ensuring that these children have the chance to thrive in environments that foster fairness, growth, and dignity.

Additionally, the project plans to incorporate emergency relief responses and community-based initiatives to address challenges caused by natural disasters and other crises. These components will focus on providing immediate aid, such as shelter and basic necessities, while also creating systems that promote long-term stability and healing. Through these efforts, the Mary K. Yap Foundation aims to build a future where no orphaned child is left behind—where every child will be given the opportunity to dream, grow, and contribute to a stronger Myanmar.  Please stay tuned.
