From Refuge to Hope

Dang Arjaw's Journey and the Heart of Ava's House

Ava’s House, a heartwarming creation by the resilient Dang Arjaw, a former Burmese refugee turned passionate pastor, opened its doors in 2022. Named after Dang’s 4-year-old daughter, Ava, the shelter is nestled near the vibrant city of Chiang Mai, home to 23 promising young children aged 5-15. Predominantly from the Akha indigenous community in the remote regions of Chiang Rai, these children face limited education opportunities at home.

Dang’s extraordinary journey from an orphanage to leading a shelter shines a light on his unwavering belief in the transformative power of education.

Empowering Rural Minds

A Beacon of Hope, Education, and Life Skills

While education often falls short in rural areas, Ava’s House acts as a beacon of hope, offering accommodation close to public schools where the children can pursue an education and open themselves up to more opportunities. Ava’s house is also dedicated to empowering these children for a brighter future by imparting life lessons such as compassion, empathy, responsibility, and camaraderie.

We emphasize the importance of supporting each other and working as a team for the betterment of all. Additionally, we expose them to various potential career paths. The impact is already remarkable—5 children are now high school students, with numerous others securing scholarships.

The love and dedication poured into Ava’s House are truly making a difference in these children’s lives, filling their days with hope, opportunity, and the joy of learning.
