Please donate

The death toll in Myanmar is pushing towards 100,000.  Please donate & also pray for all the people in there.  I have no clue why the government doesn't allow help from others, but I think the government shouldn't ignore the fact that the citizens over there are dying!!

Overview



On May 2, 2008, high winds, heavy rain and flood water claimed
thousands of lives and damaged hundreds of thousands of homes in
southwestern Myanmar.


Cyclone Nargis is the worst storm to hit Asia since 1991 when 143,000
people died Bangladesh and the worst to hit Myanmar since 1926 when
2,700 people were killed.

The greatest priorities for the Red Cross and its humanitarian
partners at this stage of the emergency response are providing shelter
and access to clean drinking water to survivors.




Red Cross and Red Crescent Response


Immediately following the storm, the Myanmar Red Cross began
assessing the damage as well as caring for survivors’ needs by
distributing family kits, containing clothing, blankets, cookware and
hygiene supplies, and drinking water to the schools and pagodas serving
as emergency shelters.


The American Red Cross is prepared assist the Myanmar Red Cross with
aid and supplies, estimated at $1.25 million, of which $1 million was
donated by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID).


The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies
has also released an initial $189,000 and shipped shelter kits, made up
of tarps, ropes and hammers, to support the relief effort in Myanmar.
The American Red Cross and International Federation will continue to
tap into their pre-stocked emergency supplies – such as tarps, hygiene
kits and insecticide-treated bed nets – located in warehouses in Kuala
Lumpur and Dubai as requested.

The American Red Cross is in close contact with its colleagues
at the Myanmar Red Cross and the International Federation. We continue
to monitor the situation, assess the needs of survivors and stand
prepared to offer additional assistance as future needs are identified.
