A New Milestone for BEST Donations

Dear Friends
Once again, for the financial year 2019-2020, I am very pleased to inform you that the BEST donations in Myanmar reached yet another milestone with a new record of 41.15 million kyats or £22,641. For a small charity, this really is excellent news. For the 2019 U Nay Win Sunshine Memorial Fund, we chose 8 of the 9 winners from and around the Chin State one of the remotest parts of the country. Please find here a short video of the donations in Myanmar. Thank you all for your support and generosity.  Thadu. Thadu. Thadu. Daw Khin Win Mya - BEST President

Mr. Alan Stanley
We are sad to announce the passing away of Daw Ohmar Thein lovingly known as Cherry in September 2019 and in February 2020 we had to say good bye to Daw Kyi Kyi Hlaing, lovingly known as Hazel. In April 2020 COVID 19, took away Dr. Myint Wynn and U Soe Win Tin. In the following month of May, we also have had to say good bye to Mr. Alan Stanley for the same reason . They were all friends and supporters of BEST as well as respected members of the Burmese community. They were loving, kind and generous people doing their best for family, friends and the community. We honour you and we pray for you. Although you are no longer physically with us in this life, you will remain in our hearts, our minds and our prayers. Rest in peace dear friends.

2019 Sunshine Donations - Welcome to the Chin State

The BEST delegation ventured through rough roads, wild rivers and mountainous climbs to reach the needy schools in the Chin state, one of the more remote, the poorest and least developed state in Myanmar. The friendly Chin people, some dressed in their traditional costumes, welcomed the delegation for reaching out to them.  Six of the nine U Nay Win Sunshine Memorial Fund winners are selected from the Chin state. In the words of U Nay Win  "Where there is already plenty of water there is no need for rain but in areas where water is scarce let the rain of metta  (loving-kindness and generosity) pour down."  Certainly in the Chin state the beautiful rain of metta, of loving kindness and generosity poured down.
