Dear friends,
Thank you for your interest in House of Hope. First of all we would like to give you a short introduction to what House of Hope really is:
* House of Hope was establish by John & Anne Gunn Broomfield and Inger-Lise Bjorkelid in January 1999. The main goal then was to offer rehabilitation and a safe home to former Shan boy soldiers.
* We tried to help these children, who had been trained to defend their war torn villages in Shan State, by giving them education and medical attention in addition to counselling.
* Later House of Hope expanded to offer help to other Shan refugee children, including girls and underpriveledged children living along the Thai/Burma border.
* Today 47 children are living at the home, and it is a true joy to see how they have found hope and a place to call home. We offer them a safe & loving home, education and medical care.
* House of Hope is a branch of a local Thai foundation called the Family Foundation, permit number 23/2544. We are a non-profit organisation.
* Inger-Lise Bjorkelid in the director of House of Hope. Six local staff live and work at the center.
