UMCOR Provides Help to Myanmar
Cyclone Nargis tore through Myanmar (Burma) May 2 with unexpected fury,
causing a tidal surge that swept inland that devastated Myanmar’s most populated
regions leaving homes and businesses flattened and families forever changed.
Satellite images reveal extensive damage along the entire costal plain. Current
reports place the death toll over 20,000, with another 40,000 missing.
The United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR) is responding to the widespread
need in Myanmar. Working through partners such as Church World Service, one of
the few agencies with permits to work in Myanmar, allows UMCOR to respond to
disasters in some of the world’s most remote places. The international community
is working to open up relationships between the US and Myanmar so that more
assistance can be provided to survivors. Additional avenues of response are
being explored through Action by Churches Together and other partners. The
unique political situation in Myanmar poses some challenges to UMCOR’s response.
UMCOR continues to monitor the situation and expects to respond to help the
people of Myanmar recover as opportunities become available.
How You Can Help —
Please pray for the people of Myanmar who have suffered great losses. Pray
also for new venues for assistance to be opened to help those in need. Financial
gifts will allow UMCOR to respond immediately and with generosity when the
appropriate structures are in place to receive further assistance. Gifts to
UMCOR Advance # 3019674, Myanmar Emergency, will help survivors of Cyclone
Nargis. Checks can be mailed to UMCOR, PO Box 9068, New York, NY 10087. Write
the Advance number and name on the memo line of your check.
