WHERE WE WORK: MYANMAR (BURMA)
ACM works in the Southeast Asian country of Myanmar (also known as Burma). Bordered by Bangladesh, China, Tibet, Laos and Thailand, it is a beautiful land rich in natural resources. With 135 ethnic people groups, Myanmar’s people are as varied and diverse as its lands, which range from mountains in the north to mighty rivers and sparkling beaches in the south. Poverty is rampant, particularly in more remote areas where distance is measured by days’ walk.
Our causes span several categories, including education, community development, evangelism, orphan care and emergency aid.
