John,

I personally wanted to make sure you saw this urgent update I sent yesterday about the devastating earthquake in Myanmar. IRC team members on the ground are reporting staggering humanitarian needs and are mobilizing our response.

Homes are destroyed. Lives have been lost. Many families have been impacted and are struggling–they need urgent medical care, clean drinking water, tents, food and other basic necessities.

That's why I'm personally asking you to please consider rushing an emergency donation now. John, your support today can truly help people who have lost everything. All gifts will be 5X-MATCHED.

John: I know that as an IRC supporter you care deeply about families who have lost everything.

A devastating 7.7 magnitude earthquake hit Myanmar, with tremors felt in Thailand and Bangladesh.

I wanted to personally share with you that my colleagues, International Rescue Committee team members on the ground, are now reporting staggering humanitarian needs… as families urgently need medical care, clean drinking water, tents, food and other basic necessities.

⚠️IRC teams are on the ground now and mobilizing emergency assistance.

🚑The mobile medical health team is already en route to Mandalay, near the epicenter of the earthquake, with essential medicines to provide life-saving aid.

💧Our partners have started distributing essential support to the earthquake-hit communities, including water, hygiene kits and critical medical assistance.

John: Please rush your emergency donation right now to power our emergency response. Your support today can truly help people who have lost everything.

We've been working in Myanmar since 2008 and provide health care, water and sanitation services, career training, and support for community development projects.

The IRC's humanitarian work in Myanmar is more crucial than ever as families are struggling to rebuild their lives in the wake of natural disasters and protracted conflict.

“The impact of the earthquake in Myanmar is likely to be severe… The damage to infrastructure and homes, loss of life and injuries sustained by communities affected should not be underestimated.” — Mohammed Riyas, IRC Myanmar Country Director
