A devastating earthquake has struck Myanmar. Humanity & Inclusion is already on the ground. Help us provide immediate and long-term support to affected communities today.

Myanmar Earthquake: Send Urgent Aid Today.

Your generosity will directly help people with disabilities, including survivors of disaster and conflict around the world who are too often forgotten.

On March 28, a catastrophic 7.7-magnitude earthquake struck Myanmar. It is the strongest and most devastating earthquake that has been recorded in the country for years. More than 4,000 lives have been lost, and thousands more are injured. Hospitals are overwhelmed, and critical infrastructure has been destroyed. Despite the challenges, Humanity & Inclusion's teams are already on the ground.

"A disaster of this scale is extremely traumatic. Most of the victims have lost everything they had."

-Gilles Nouzies
HI Regional Director for Southeast Asia

HI has been responding to disasters like this one for over 40 years. We know they often strike without warning and almost always disproportionately affect people with disabilities. Our emergency teams are prepared to provide the most important and immediate needs, including:

shelter and hygiene kits for those who have lost their homes
rehabilitation care for those with injuries and amputations
psychological first aid for those enduring the severe trauma of a life-altering disaster.

We can't do this work without people like you. Your gift today can change lives and bring hope to people who have lost everything. Every dollar you give strengthens our ability to provide immediate and long-term assistance to those who need it most.
