​Many of you may have heard about the fire that killed 37 Christian Karen-tribe refugees from Burma in Northern Thailand, leaving more than 2,000 homeless.

​Asia's Hope is deeply tied to these tribal communities, as most of our kids and staff are hilltribe themselves. 

In fact, our Thai Director, Tutu Bee, is from the Karen tribe.

We feel a strong kinship, and wish to bless these dear brothers and sisters in their time of urgent need.

In the next few days, we will be announcing specific plans to help, and will be requesting donations to help with rebuilding and emergency aid. Please begin to pray about how you, your church, your business and your family can help.

If you would like to get involved, or have any questions, please contact Executive Director John McCollum john@asiashope.org
