Warm Clothes and Schools Reopening for Children in Kachin State, Myanmar

27/1/2022

 
Picture
Every year, our partners in Kachin State, Myanmar provide the children who attend our Early Childhood Development centres with a new set of warm clothes to help them stay warm during the winter months. The children received their parcels in December 2021 and were absolutely delighted with their new clothes.
