Burmese children have generally not an easy life, but when the protecting hand of the Parents or extended family is missing, then it will be particularly difficult. The fate of Orphans, the Burmese government has thus far never been particularly interested, because Finally, you could recruit the orphans wonderful as child soldiers or in the Deport care of the numerous temples.

To date, the current government sees little Action, as the temple this task satisfactorily resolve in her eyes that So from the public, "remove" problem. Anyone but with open eyes the streets runs along will quickly realize what a sham takes place here, because the temple can no longer be solved by its own efforts this gigantic task long ago. orphans constitute the largest share of beggars in the country, and not just in the big cities ...

In June 2013 Mr. Naung Moon told his friend, Mr. Khin Maung Htwe (see above) the Idea to donate a large sum of money for a good cause. ... ... see above Mr. Htwe has after the cyclone of 2007, all surviving old puppeteer in the country gathered in his ensemble "Htwe Oo Myanmar", so the 800-year-old Obtain tradition of puppetry for the future. But he has not only his Career sacrificed as a naval officer, but also his personal wealth abandoned. He has to be rehomed in the old puppeteer, medical supplies and it must sell his house. The military was not pleased to hear that a senior officer of his career, is for the unprofitable art of puppetry sacrifices, and he stood for years so under critical observation.

Meanwhile, his ensemble is the last traditional ensemble playing of the country, and internationally known and honored (including 2011 have been on tour in Germany). His ensemble is educating young artists, visited schools and temples and works educative in the villages by zBdie puppets in addition to the traditional pieces and modern Own compositions with topics such as hygiene, AIDS, water scarcity etc list. Of course, Mr. Htwe was delighted with the idea of his friend. However, instead of the money to use for his own ensemble, he hit his friend in front of a foundation. As a father of two children and director of the last traditional puppetry ensemble of Country is it the young generation especially the heart. In the many luxurious appearances his ensemble in temples and schools across the country is for him the difficult situation of orphans has become abundantly clear, and so it was natural for him, the To use money of his friend, to help these children. The NCDG Foundation was established subsequently to target orphans and facilities serve these to help.

Official orphanages in Myanmar there are only a few. Most of these are at large Temple schools affiliated. In Than-Lyn, a small suburb of Yangon, there is a Such an orphanage for about 40 girls in common with the 600 other children the great temple school life. It soon became clear that the efficiency of the donations was questionable because the

Temple donations for the entire school and the temple used, and therefore the money is not deliberately arrived at the orphan girl. Although the support in Than-Lyn continues, but the founders, it was important to the to few financial resources direct and targeted help.

Soon they were successful in another suburb of Yangon. There was a Nun school already received orphan girls on their own for years. The school offers the girls not only

food and lodging, they are also used for formed a higher school career and prepared for a possible study that the Then temple school paid for the girls out of pocket. Here the NCDG has her new main project found, since September 2013, it financed the Expansion of the building of the school, provide the girls with food, clothing and Teaching materials and try regionally so many orphan girls as possible from the To bring street in this school.

Meanwhile, the expansion of the school has begun, little by little, the corrugated iron shack expanded, and now the number of orphan girls had picked up on over 40 increased. The money the Foundation has long run, therefore, the project is financed now through nationwide appeals for donations. For this purpose, specially an interest group was formed in the financially better-off Burmese (former military, business) are to be Mr. Htwe by Has learned commitment to the puppet show. But even with this help can only a school are poorly improved, and therefore is much more publicity necessary, the Lord Htwe with his family to the care and organization of the Puppet ensemble does in his spare time.

Since September 2013, the commitment of the Foundation has spoken very little around, the issue of orphans in Myanmar is still not really a public issue. At least the temple schools, however, are well linked with each other, and are so Step by step, more schools which will be funded by the Foundation, the Example, the Ahpamarda school also receives and trains young girls.

Since Mr. Htwe now occurs throughout Myanmar with his ensemble, he uses the However, in order to collect donations and appearances to find the temple schools where Are taken and trained orphans. His dream is to build in the future, a network of such schools and support can, and thus to allow the government to attentively enough to get involved.

Along with these requirements, the Foundation is now looking outside Myanmar's new Supporters and partners. The monthly donations from the Burmese, are reaching at far more from the ever newly added temple schools targeted support or finance. It is not only financial donations are important, but also the contact and exchange with NGOs and other non-profit organizations. As far everything in-house private and was organized with little financial means, Mr. Htwe would be happy to contact professional organizations come to him, inter alia, with their experience and Know-how are at your side.
