Reuniting the displaced children of Myanmar
As the weather becomes cooler in Hong Kong, the season of hot pots and poon choi (big bowl feast) has arrived which are all hallmarks of family gatherings for Chinese families leading up to Chinese New Year.
As you gather with your families to celebrate the coming of a new year, we want to invite you to remember and consider contributing a portion of lai see/red packet money to help Viva reunite displaced children affected by the military rule in Myanmar with their families and their ethnic groups.
Many as young as 14 are kidnapped and forced to become child soldiers for the military and when the military disbanded in 2011, many are left to survive on the streets of Yangon.
Your gift will go to support the work of Viva’s partner network in Myanmar, Children’s Development Family Network, which comprises 20 Christian NGOs and children’s projects in Yangon, as it cares for displaced children, and reunites them with their families and communities.

香港天氣轉涼，又到一家人共享火鍋及盆菜等美食的季節了，亦像徵着農曆新年快將來臨。在普天同慶時，Viva誠邀 您捐出部分利是，支持我們協助緬甸的童兵重返家園。
緬甸的兒童會被綁架並被逼成為童兵，當中最年幼的兒童只有14歲。軍隊隨着2011年戰事結束而解散，很多童兵從而流落仰光街頭，不知何去何從。你的捐助能支持Viva在當地由20個基督教慈善組織組成的的網絡及其兒童事工，關心流落街頭的兒童並協助他們重返家庭樂聚天倫。
