Help Myanmar Recover from the March 28th Earthquakes

Hi, I am Lynn. I am fund raising to Help Myanmar Recover from the March 28th Earthquake

On Friday, March 28th at 12:50 PM, a devastating 7.7 magnitude earthquake struck central Myanmar, near Mandalay.

Over 2,700 people have lost their lives, thousands are injured, and entire communities are now homeless.

Homes, schools, temples, and vital infrastructure have crumbled. The need for aid is urgent.

For me, this is more than a headline — it’s home.

That morning, I woke with a sinking feeling and rushed to check on my loved ones. I was able to reach family and friends in Yangon, but Mandalay — my hometown — was silent.

The hours that followed felt like days. When the images and news finally came through, my heart broke.

I grew up playing around the Mandalay Palace. Now, the city is unrecognizable — buildings gone, streets reduced to rubble.

People I grew up with are suffering. Some have lost their homes. Some are still searching for missing loved ones.

Fortunately, my immediate family is safe — but many others are desperate for help.

The Situation is Dire

People are suffering, fighting for survival. Many are too afraid to return to their homes, spending their nights on the streets in fear of aftershocks.

Bodies remain trapped beneath collapsed buildings. With the intense heat, the smell of death is beginning to rise — a haunting reality no one should have to face.

I feel deeply unsettled by every piece of news I receive. I can't stop thinking:

"How can I help in the fastest and most effective way?"

It’s heartwarming to see rescue teams from neighboring countries working tirelessly, risking their lives to save others. Amid the devastation, their courage shines as a glimmer of hope.

Witnessing them rescue children, pregnant women, and the elderly from beneath the rubble is nothing short of heroic. In the face of overwhelming tragedy, these acts of humanity remind us that even in the darkest moments, hope endures.
