In December 2018, uab bank through its “Be The Change” program commmitted to reach out to under-privileged children with 1000 gifts. Through our ground surveys,uab bank volunteers found many working children at the Shwe Gant Gaw Teashop area and Yangon Railway Station and they asked for mobile phones so that they could be in touch with their families and close ones. Others asked for bags, clothes and other presents.
Over February 2019, we were able to deliver gifts (mainly low-cost key phone sets) to 60 children in the targed areas
