Emergency Relief for Earthquake Victims in Burma (Myanmar)
From the hearts of two Burmese Americans to the people of their homeland in crisis.
We are Htwe and Myo, We are originally from Burma (Myanmar), and though we now call the United States home, our hearts remain deeply rooted in the land, the people, and the communities we love.
On March 28th, a devastating earthquake struck Burma, bringing destruction, fear, and heartbreak to thousands. Our families and loved ones live in the regions impacted by the recent earthquake in Burma. Some have lost their homes. Others are without access to clean water, medical care, or safe shelter. The devastation is personal—and it’s urgent.
We’re reaching out to you not just as members of a global community, but as sons and daughters of Burma, asking for help for our people.
We are partnering with dear friends, Mary Ellen and Dave, to raise urgently needed funds for direct emergency relief.
The vast majority of funds—approximately 90%—will go directly toward emergency relief efforts for families impacted by the earthquake in Burma. A small portion (up to 10%) may be set aside to cover required tax obligations associated with receiving and distributing the funds.
Your donations will help provide:
Temporary shelter and safe housing
Emergency food and clean water
Basic medical supplies and care
Transportation and fuel for supply delivery or relocation
Rebuilding support for homes and community spaces
This is a grassroots, person-to-person effort. Every dollar will go where it’s needed, and we will provide updates as the funds are distributed.
We will be working with trusted contacts and organizations in Burma to ensure the funds are used responsibly and where the need is greatest. Updates will be provided as we begin distributing the funds.
Please give if you can—and share our story. Even the smallest contribution will make a real difference for people whose lives have been turned upside down.
With deep gratitude,
Htwe & Myo
(With Mary Ellen & Dave, friends and supporters)
