Ethnic violence broke out in Manipur on May 3, 2023, with reports of 140 deaths with homes and churches burned, and an estimated 50,000 people displaced.
Hope Gardens are committed to providing relief and support to the people of Manipur affected by this violence.
The violence has been largely concentrated in an area where the majority Meitei community and the tribal Kuki community have been clashing.
The government and army have set up camps to provide shelter and food for the displaced people with different organizations across the country providing medication, food, and support.
We are responding to the situation in Manipur by providing the following:
Shelter for displaced families, including food, accommodation, and schools for their children.
Part-time work in our paddy fields for some workers.
Jobs, accommodation, and food for two Bible college teachers.
Education, accommodation, and food for 10 Bible college students who have had their studies disrupted.
We are committed to providing relief and support to the people of Manipur affected by this violence. We believe that everyone deserves to live in peace and security, and we will continue to work to help those who have been affected by this tragedy.
