Donations will be collected from individuals and businesses and then, the money will be sent to our recipients in Myanmar.
Please visit the What's On page to find a project that you would like to support.
If you are not too fussed about selecting a project, we can put your general donations towards better quality food, clean water, medicine, clothing, educational materials, building maintenance and agricultural projects.
Please be advised that from the 1st of January 2022, 10% from every general donation will be redirected to the Mission2Myanmar's operational budget. This will ensure that the Mission2Myanmar (M2M) will have enough money to meet its operational expenses and will also have some money leftover for printed promotional materials.
We collect monthly expense reports from our recipients with supporting evidence. Then after that, we carefully scrutinise those reports to ensure that the donated funds have been spent appropriately. Financial members of M2M may request copies of the expense reports.
Due to ongoing civil unrest in Myanmar, M2M cannot send any tangible goods to Myanmar at this time.
M2M will continue to monitor the situation in Myanmar. We will resume sending shipments to Myanmar when we can.
Picture books are generally okay to send to Myanmar. Unfortunately English is not widely spoken and therefore, it's not a good idea to send books/literature written in fluent English because the kids might not be able to read it without an interpreter.
In Myanmar not only do they have their own ancient alphabet but also; they have their own ancient numeric system. So please reconsider sending items which feature many western numbers such as times tables for mathematics.
Yes, you can.
The Mission2Myanmar is a Public Benevolent Institution (PBI) which has been endorsed as a Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR).
If you donate $2 or more to the Mission2Myanmar, we will send you a tax receipt and then you can claim a tax deduction at the end of the financial year.
