Ayeyarwady Foundation has donated the fund for Health Insurance worth 500 Million MMK for Caregivers in Myanmar, who are actively working relentlessly across the country to contain and fight against the COVID-19 spread. This funding was realized after the discussion between Dr. Myint Htwe, Union Minister for Health and Sports and U Zaw Zaw, Chairperson of the Ayeyarwady Foundation and AYA SOMPO Insurance Company Limited. This Health Insurance Benefit Fund is aimed at the front line health care workers working at the hospitals and various areas across the country respectively to feel safe for their health while caring for the patients during the crisis of COVID-19.

Moreover, the Foundation has provided services at the AYA Bank’s Training Centre for their accommodation, daily meals and transportation services ferrying the doctors and nurses from Waibargi Hospital, who are currently facing the difficulties of commuting and lodgings.
