Review for Myanmar Childrens Foundation, Davis, CA, USA

Rating: 4 stars  

I've known about MCF since its creation in 2007 when I worked side by side with Max Harrington as a Burmese volunteer in Yangon, Myanmar. We hosted fund-fairs and children's theater
projects to start raising money to support monastic schools in the Mon State.
My friends and I also created bracelets to sell and volunteered to teach in a Doorway to English Program. Many Burmese/ Mon/ Karen/ Kachin/ Shan volunteers have been involved, both in Myanmar and in California. In the past years, MCF has built 5 school buildings and two water tanks. MCF is a truly a grass-roots organization that delivers school supplies, medicines, nutritional supplements to children in rural area to support their staying in school.
