Please send your donations to the new address. Also, if you are making recurring monthly donations through your bank, please notify your bank about our new address.
We would like to extend our sincere thanks to those who made donations for the 2017 December Annual Fundraising Campaign. The campaign has been extended until the end of January, 2018. Thank you for your generous donations.
The donations you make become food for hungry children, hope for the children who are unable to attend school, and medicine for sick children.

On January 5, 2018, JTS field officers took a preliminary survey of the Kutupalong and Thinghali refugee camps among the 12 Rohingya refugee camps. They found that what the refugees needed the most were rice and blankets to get through the cold weather, so they decided to provide those two items.
JTS field officers Jeonyeon Choi and Soonyoung Kim were dispatched to Bangladesh to provide emergency relief aid to the Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh. On January 10, 2018, they successfully distributed a 15Kg bag of rice and a blanket to each of 2,000 households.
JTS will continue to support the Rohingya refugees. Thank you for your interest and generous donations.
