Our 
Story

Get to Know Us

Inspired by the difficult realities faced by displaced children and women in Burma, our founder, AZ, was deeply moved by what he witnessed—bamboo schools held together with hope, and communities surviving with minimal resources. During his travels, these powerful experiences stayed with him.

Together with his compassionate colleague, David Li, they founded the Southern Asia Hope Foundation to bring lasting change. Their mission: to improve education, living conditions, and opportunity—empowering vulnerable communities to build a brighter future, one step at a time.

Bringing Hope to Southern Asia

At Southern Asia Hope Foundation, we are dedicated to uplifting lives and creating sustainable change in the region. Through our various programs and initiatives, we strive to empower communities, provide education opportunities, and improve healthcare access. Our team is committed to making a positive impact and bringing hope to those in need. Join us in our mission to create a brighter future for Southern Asia. Together, we can make a difference and inspire change.

Behind every smile is a child with dreams—dreams of learning, growing, and building a brighter future. But for many families in Southern Asia, poverty and lack of opportunity make those dreams feel out of reach. Together, we can change that. Your support provides food, education, and hope to children who need it most. Even the smallest gift can open a door, put a pencil in a child’s hand, or bring comfort to a struggling family. Join us today—because your kindness can transform lives and light the path to a better tomorrow.

help us help them 

Every meal shared, every lesson taught, and every smile restored is proof that change is possible. These children are not statistics—they are sons and daughters with limitless potential. With your help, we can give them the chance to learn, to grow strong, and to believe in a brighter future. Together, we can replace despair with opportunity and give families the tools they need to thrive. Stand with us today, and be part of a story of hope that will echo for generations.
