| TBBC Gifts Catalogue: Overview |
TBBC raises funds from all over the world from governments, private and public organisations and individuals. It is a tremendous challenge to maintain interest and sustain support after more than 23 years and it is always a struggle to raise enough money to pay for the day to day needs of the refugees. Considering the scale of the problem and the size of TBBC’s budget, it might be hard to imagine how you could really make a difference but the reality is that helping even one person or one family does have an impact.
This TBBC Gifts Catalogue is full of ways that you can assist refugees from Burma. From basic food rations, shelter and household necessities like mosquito nets, blankets and cooking stoves, to giving refugees skills to earn an income, cultivating kitchen gardens and supporting refugee workers to take care of their communities, your gift can make a real difference in the lives of real people, regardless of how much you are able to give. Our goal is to provide not only humanitarian aid but also to support long term self-reliance and environmental stewardship. So, take a look through the catalogue and give a gift to help refugees today. Unit prices are based on annual average costs and if any one activity is fully funded we guarantee that your donation will be used for one of the other activities. |
