Help Edward's Village- Flood Relief

Donation protected

Myanmar is flooding, and this year it's much higher than normal.
Edward's village (near Naunglebin, Bago Division, Karen State) is next to the Sittaw river which has broken it's banks and covered the village in at least 2-3 feet of water. They’ve got about 3 days worth of food and water left. It's a 1.5 hour walk to the nearest paved road. High on the needs list is also trying to rent or purchase a boat ($300)  to reach supplies, and then possibly water filtration systems, and tablets to treat the illnesses that come when you have to poop in the same water that you’re walking in. 
I am estimating that unless they get more supplies, within 6 days the villagers will be in a very serious condition, particularly the elderly and the children. So share this around people and let's get them some help!

This campaign was set up by Jasmine (aka Juliet November), Asia Field Coordinator for Project VIDEO. Edward Win has been working as a trainer with Project VIDEO since 2015, and he's back in his village trying to help them.
