Organisations in the region are providing temporary shelters, clean drinking water, food and medical assistance for those affected right now, but we need your help to raise vital funds for their urgent, life-saving work.
Disruption to essential services including road infrastructure and communication systems is making the situation extremely difficult for emergency workers – already faced with a challenging environment.
The population of Myanmar is experiencing severe hardship, with an ongoing civil war, high levels of poverty and almost 3 million displaced people. The earthquake has hit at a time when it’s reported that around 20 million people in Myanmar were already in need of aid.
The full extent of the toll is hard to assess and may take time, especially for the affected populations close to the earthquake epicentre. ​Give today to help our partners undertake their life-saving work.
