Burma Myanmar Cyclone Disaster USA Fundraising

"On May 2, 2008, Cyclone Nargis swept across southern Myanmar, with high winds, heavy rain and flood water claiming thousands of lives and damaging hundreds of thousands of homes.

This 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 cyclone impacted more than 2.4 million people, many of whom still need assistance, including shelter, food, clean water and protection against disease."

Our help is still needed to support the relief work that the American Red Cross is providing. Ongoing efforts have resulted in plane loads of supplies including tarps, kitchen kits, bed nets (protect from bugs), hygiene kits, blankets, water and more being shipped to Myanmar.
