Thai Burma Border Health Initiative

Who We Are: 

Four physicians working in New Mexico formed the Thai Burma Border Health Initiative.  One of the founders lived and worked on the Thai-Burma border previously and made many contacts.  We formed this organization largely in response to needs identified by local people, and we have a local project director in Thailand who identifies and directs our day-to-day activities.

We were incorporated in New Mexico in March 2007 and received IRS recognition as a 501(c)3 tax-exempt organization a few months later.  We are registered with the New Mexico Attorney General as a charity.

 All of our officers are volunteers and are not compensated for their time or out-of-pocket expenses. We send 100% of all donated funds to the field.
