A Heartwarming Start to 2024

A Heartwarming Start to 2024 for Vulnerable Children in Yangon

Yangon, MyanmarThe St. Francis Xavier Church in Thanlyin came alive with joy as 50 children gathered to celebrate a special Happy New Year 2024 gathering. This heartwarming event brought together young souls from vulnerable families for a day of laughter, music, and festive cheer. It was a celebration not only of the holiday season but also of the bright hopes we carry into the coming year. We are especially grateful to Father Nyan Myint, a cherished friend and partner in our mission to support underprivileged youth. His enduring support and warm presence made this gathering even more meaningful. His involvement continues to be a source of inspiration for all who are working to make a positive difference in these children’s lives.

Returning to Thanlyin for another year of celebration fills us with gratitude and strengthens our commitment to continue spreading hope where it’s needed most. Events like this remind us of the joy found in community and the powerful impact of small acts of kindness, especially for those facing hardship.

Our Aspiring Mission of Hope

The Mary K. Yap Foundation operates with a core mission: to transform the lives of Myanmar orphans, guiding them toward becoming independent and productive members of their communities.

The Mary K. Yap Foundation operates with a core mission: to transform the lives of Myanmar orphans, guiding them toward becoming independent and productive members of their communities. We deeply believe that every one of these children can truly prosper when given the proper guidance and committed support. They deserve not just care, but the undivided love and enduring hope from those who believe in their potential. For over two decades, we’ve been profoundly humbled to serve the interests of these disadvantaged children, witnessing firsthand the incredible resilience they possess.

Our Aspiring Mission: Equal Access and a Brighter Future

Our organizational mission aspires to provide every orphan with the enduring hope that they, too, have equal access to quality educational programs and sufficient facilities and tools. These resources are not merely provisions; they are absolutely crucial for aiding these young individuals in forging a brighter, more promising future. We understand deeply that education is the cornerstone of empowerment, the very foundation upon which a life of dignity and opportunity can be built.

Therefore, we are profoundly committed to equipping these young minds with not only the academic knowledge but also the critical skills necessary to navigate the complexities of the modern world successfully. This includes fostering critical thinking, problem-solving abilities, and the adaptability required to thrive in an ever-evolving global landscape. Our aim is to ensure that their journey is marked by continuous learning and growth, opening doors to possibilities that might otherwise remain out of reach.

Fostering Skills and Building Confidence

The Foundation actively engages in socially impactful activities specifically designed to help these orphaned children develop vital life skills. This includes fostering their abilities in communicating and interacting effectively with others, and crucially, building their self-confidence. By creating environments where they can learn, grow, and express themselves, the Foundation ensures that these orphaned children will be empowered and ultimately become reliable and contributing citizens within their communities. Our commitment is to nurture not just their minds, but their spirits, so they can lead fulfilling and impactful lives.
