About the Program
In the mountain villages of western Myanmar, deep poverty leaves children shoeless in the winters. In the summers, children blister as they walk to school without sunscreen or umbrellas. Low salaries prompt teachers to skip classes. Children entertain themselves at school. Subsistence living forces many to skip meals or steal food. With the current civil war raging, normal life has come to a standstill.
Shalem Christian Academy (SCA) - Boarding gives children from these villages–as well as poor children in the city of Kalaymyo–an opportunity for something better. Sponsorships help students live and study at our campus in Kalaymyo or at private boarding schools. Our missionary partners, Lian and Lunnu Thang, take great care of these students. Every need is provided—nutritious meals, clothing, school supplies, tutoring, and medical care. Most important, they receive spiritual care and mentorship. Whether they live on SCA’s campus or board in a private school, we make sure they are involved in after school sports and church activities.
Because of Shalem Christian Academy, students know that their needs matter—to us and their Heavenly Father.
A full sponsorship costs $160/month for SCA Boarding students. Four sponsors make this possible for one child at $40/month each. One sponsor may contribute more than one-fourth of the total sponsorship (e.g. one sponsor at $80/month).
