Circuit has successfully run this project for over ten years. In 2024 severe fighting in Shan state led to a massive change in the political structure of the area. In 2025, we have decided to pause further funding of this project and focus on the new Fair Yield project.
“This project supported us by lending us seed and fertilizer. Our incomes were raised and we were able to support our children to study in Lashio (largest town in Shan state). ”
In northern Myanmar we have met many people enslaved on what was their own land because of corrupt business practices and greedy moneylenders.
We helped change that
In between 2015 and 2024 we helped many village tracts tracts out of a difficult spots by loaning them around $7000 NZD at very low interest. This was enough to buy seeds for all the farmers. Around a year later, that community had paid us back in full plus interest. Without this loan communities would have lost all their land to moneylenders and Chinese corporates. There is also a high chance that their children would have been trafficked. Thanks to your backing, we have changed the lives of almost 20,000 people.
