Save Myanmar Flood Disaster
Eleven of 14 States in Myanmar (Burma) suffer the worst flooding in Myanmar's history.
Due to continuous heavy rains since 16 July, flood destroyed farmland, roads, rail tracks, bridges and houses in Myanmar. Water from spillways of the dams as well as Cyclone Komen has worsened the flood. More than 310,000 acres, including 24,000 acres of cultivated land, have been flooded across the country. The situation has exacerbated – up to 250,000 people had been displaced or had their livelihoods affected. More torrential rain is expected in the coming days.
Continuous rain and flood has cut the affected people the access to basic necessities including clean water, food and clothes. The displaced people and animals are now sheltering at many temporary camps and monasteries. More news: http://goo.gl/loqj7f
You are respectfully requested to make donations for flood victims in Myanmar
Seeing people affected from flood and cyclone, and devasted houses, roads, bridges and farms, whole villages and towns under water has shaken our hearts. We are Myanmar eventhough we are now living, studying and working in Australia and overseas. Our financial support will assist with local aid groups and NGOs currently helping at those affected areas as well as the rescue operations needed in urgent need of our help!
Every dollar of your donation will go directly into facilitate them in this disaster. Your distributions will be donated to the major aid organisations:

Without help on an international scale, there is no hope of reconstructing the many lives that have been affected. Your donation will help make a difference so, please donate and no matter how much it is, it will help these Burmese In Need! If you have any further enquires on either the donations, the situation of the current disaster or any other questions, please feel free to contact me. Thank you so much in advance for your help!
