Care Villa

The villa

Help 4 Forgotten Allies

The men at Care Villa spend their lives disabled by blindness and immobility, and sit under a hot tin roof with little to do. For the most part they are ex-Karen soldiers and lost their sight while attempting to defuse land-mines or lost their legs by stepping on one. Most have lived at the Care Villa for many years. Our donations pay for each man’s soap, toothpaste, toothbrushes, shampoo, soap powder, clothes, shoes and medicines such as painkillers and antibiotics. On our last visit there (October 2022) , we were asked to provide a guitar. You can see Yu Ler Moo playing it in the photo below at Christmas the same year.
