Thank you all!

March 07, 2023

Thank you to all our supporters! It has been amazing to see such a huge outpouring of support in the last few weeks. Thanks to you, we've surpassed our goal, raising $12,910 for the Burmese students here at NIU. All of that money will go towards supporting the Burmese student cohort while they study here at NIU.

We're so grateful for all the generosity that has made this success possible. Your support will make a huge difference for the peace of mind of these students, who no longer have to worry about their health insurance. Thank you!

If you have any questions for us, please feel free to contact the Center for Southeast Asian Studies.

Not over yet!

Thank you to all who have generously donated! Everything that is donated will be split evenly between the students to support their health insurance costs. Every little bit helps!

Will you help us pass 50%? This will mean each of the students will have half the cost of their health insurance covered. Because of ongoing conflict in Burma, these students can't go home. While they're here studying at NIU, they also have to worry about the challenges of American health insurance. Any support makes a huge difference for them!

There's two days left to give and help us reach the halfway point. Share this fundraiser with anyone who might be interested, and make sure no one misses the opportunity to contribute!

Thank you for your support!


Almost halfway there!
