Colorado Burma Roundtable Network

CBRTN is able to provide funds, assistance, education, transportation only because of the graciousness of God and the many people who give of their money, resources and time. Further, CBRTN is only one of many national and international organizations that serve to assist the Karen and other peoples of Burma, raise awareness of the issues and exert pressure on governments to seek regime change in Burma.

Melissa Rutter: For the month of June, 2007, I traveled with a group from Colorado Burma Roundtable Network (CBRTN) to Thailand and Burma, visiting the Refugee and Internally Displaced Person (IDP) camps. Below are pictures of some of the people I met who were being hunted by the Burma Army. While there we attempted to encourage their soul, by letting them know that people do care, and treat their physical ailments with our medical personnel. A group from CBRTN travels to the area once a year to show their support.
