American Lisa Nesser moved to northern Thailand six years ago to help refugees from Burma. When she learned that many minority children from Burma were unable to attend school in Thailand, Nesser started giving free evening classes. Her small group of students soon grew into a unique school. In this week's edition of our series Making a Difference, VOA's Daniel Schearf talks with Nesser at the school she opened in Chiang Mai, Thailand, that she calls Thai Freedom House.

  • "Making A Difference" is very inspirational. I've started to show some of its videos to my class. I'd like to tell kids that they can also make a difference if they want to. The world will be getting better just because there are some great men and women out there willing to sacrifice their precious time and money for those in need. I would pay a great respect to Ms. Nesser for her unselfish act done to the children from Burma.

  • I know Lisa personally and have visited her school numerous times! She is doing a great job and is very worthy of your support! Please help her, Sally, Project Director CMFS, Chiangmai
