A Devastating Earthquake Has Struck Myanmar, Urgent Help Needed!

On March 28, 2025, a 7.7 magnitude earthquake struck Myanmar, with Mandalay at the epicenter, destroying homes, schools, and entire communities in seconds. Thousands of families have been displaced, struggling to survive without shelter, food, or medical care. With already limited resources due to ongoing conflict, this disaster has made an already dire situation even worse.

We provide direct aid to those who are often overlooked and underserved in crisis situations through our trusted local networks.

Emergency Medical Aid for Myanmar – Help Save Lives

Right now, Myanmar is facing a humanitarian crisis of devastating proportions. The ongoing conflict has left millions displaced, with limited access to medical care, supplies, and essential relief. Families are struggling to survive in makeshift shelters, while doctors and medics risk their lives to provide care with scarce resources.

Why This Matters

Hospitals are overwhelmed or destroyed – Many medical facilities have been targeted, leaving people with nowhere to turn for urgent care.

Supplies are critically low – There is a severe shortage of antibiotics, bandages, IV fluids, and life-saving medicine.

Healthcare workers are at risk – Brave medics are working in hidden clinics and jungle hospitals, treating patients under extreme conditions.

Displaced families have no access to healthcare – Many are suffering from untreated injuries, infections, and chronic illnesses, with no way to seek medical help.

Every dollar raised goes directly to frontline medics, mobile clinics, and emergency relief teams providing care to those in desperate need.

How Your Donation Helps

$25 provides essential medicine for one patient.

$50 helps equip a mobile medical team with supplies.

$100 supports emergency treatment for a displaced family.

$250+ funds life-saving surgery, urgent trauma care, and field hospital operations.

Your generosity will bring healing and hope to those suffering the most. Every contribution, big or small, makes an impact.

We know times are tough for many, and we are deeply grateful for any support you can give—whether it’s a donation, sharing this fundraiser, or simply spreading awareness about Myanmar’s crisis.

Please join us in standing with the people of Myanmar. Your kindness can save lives.

Recently, a devastating earthquake of magnitude 7.7 struck Myanmar, resulting in unfathomable losses of homes and loved ones as well as the destruction of centuries-old invaluable cultural heritage. Thousands are confirmed dead, many more are still trapped under debris and rubble, and the number grows as rescue operations are stalled by broken infrastructure, blocked roads, and a lack of support. The air is heavy with the stench of decomposing bodies, and hospitals are overwhelmed beyond capacity. With the ongoing military coup, this could not be a worse time for this disaster. As survivors cry out for help, they are met not only with silence but with the sounds of bombs and gunfire from the military junta. In some areas, rescue workers are being shot at, and airstrikes continue to hit already devastated zones. The military junta has blocked the flow of information to the outside world, spreading misleading narratives while hiding the true scale of the crisis.

Myanmar is in need of immediate international attention and aid. As students living away from our country, we, as the Burmese Club of Pasadena City College, want to seize this opportunity to call for international aid by raising awareness and organizing fundraising efforts to support frontline relief.

Our funds will be directly going to Better Burma, a US-based 501(c)(3) and a nonprofit humanitarian organization. Please take a part in Myanmar’s recovery by donating any amount or raising awareness. Any little effort can make a great impact.
