Burma
Stronghold’s Work in Burma
The Burma Army continues to target ethnic minorities for genocide and to attack pro-democracy groups throughout the country.
Emergency Supply caches
Stronghold created 25+ emergency supply caches containing food, shelter, and medicine.
The emergency supply caches are sealed in water-proof drums and hidden in safe locations in the jungle.
When villages are attacked and people flee into the safety of the jungle, the villagers are able to use these supplies to survive.

Ukraine
Stronghold’s Work In Ukraine
In February 2022, the Russian Army invaded Ukraine unleashing an unprovoked wave of violence and terror upon the citizens of Ukraine in the form of indiscriminate bombings, mass executions, and rapes.
Starting in late March, Stronghold began to assist inside Ukraine by providing medical supplies and training for Ukrainian civilians who have volunteered to protect their homes and their nation from the Russian Army.
