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.
