Urgent Appeal: Help the Disasters Emergency Committee Respond to the Myanmar Earthquakes
Written by: Kate Hillier
Powerful earthquakes in Myanmar have caused catastrophic devastation. Survivors urgently need critical support.
A powerful 7.7 magnitude earthquake has devastated huge areas of Myanmar.
Countless roads and buildings have been destroyed, including schools and water supplies. Network and power lines are down. People are cut off from vital services.
Myanmar was already facing a severe humanitarian crisis, with a third of the population in need of humanitarian aid. Now the situation is catastrophic.
DEC charities are already on the ground in affected communities and are working hard to access remote areas.
They urgently need more funds to scale up their work and reach the most vulnerable.
