Our Mission

Working together with UNHCR and other organizations to find durable solutions

Transforming Lives Through Support

Zomi Association of Malaysia (ZAM) is a non-profit organization established to elevate capability building in the social community, community development, and welfare missions. We focus on health care, social care, spiritual growth, and moral support for the Zomi people in collaboration with social communities and UNHCR.

Our dedicated team works tirelessly to assist refugees from Myanmar, particularly from Chin State, who have fled due to persecution for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of particular social groups, or political opinion.

Through our collaborative efforts with UNHCR, IOM, USCIS, DHS, RSC, local and international NGOs, faith-based organizations, and other ethnic communities, we strive to find durable solutions and provide humanitarian assistance to those in need.

Voices of Hope

Stories from the people we have supported

When I arrived in Malaysia with nothing, ZAM volunteers helped me find shelter, medical care, and eventually a job. Their support gave me hope in the darkest times of my life as a refugee.

ZAM's education center gave my children a chance to learn when no other schools would accept them. The teachers are dedicated and care deeply about our children's future.

When I was hospitalized, I had no one to help me communicate with doctors. ZAM's healthcare volunteers stayed with me, translated everything, and even helped arrange financial support. I'm alive today because of them.
