Your donation is urgently needed

A deadly earthquake measuring 7.7 magnitude struck central Myanmar on 28 March, destroying lives across the region.

Over 3,500 people have been killed and 5,000 injured. Many more are still buried in the rubble, and these numbers are expected to rise.

Those who survived the terrifying earthquake now face a desperate humanitarian crisis.

• People are in urgent need of medical care, shelter, food and water, and access to safe sanitation and hygiene.
• Hospitals are so overwhelmed that injured patients are being treated in car parks and streets.
• Essential infrastructure like roads, electricity and internet have been severely damaged, making communication challenging.

Jesus calls us to stand alongside people in crisis. Will you make a life-saving donation today?
