Myanmar & Thailand Earthquake
Emergency Response Fundraiser
Here’s how to help those affected by the major earthquake.
A devastating 7.7 magnitude earthquake has struck Myanmar, with aftershocks felt in Thailand, creating a dire humanitarian crisis. Myanmar is facing catastrophic infrastructure damage and a rising death toll in the thousands.
The urgent need for international assistance includes vital supplies like water, food, shelter, and medical aid.
The situation in Myanmar is particularly critical. The earthquake’s epicenter caused widespread destruction, impacting numerous regions and displacing thousands. In Thailand, a building collapse in Bangkok resulted in tragic fatalities, highlighting critical building safety concerns and underscoring the need for support to the affected families.
The international community must act now and your support can help assist those affected.
Building Markets, a nonprofit organization supporting small and medium-sized enterprises worldwide is mobilizing a network of local businesses in Myanmar and Thailand to deliver much-needed support and supplies to first responders and victims. Watch the interview with Elizabeth Brown, Head of Partnerships at Building Markets on how you and your crypto donations can make a difference.
