SAS Responds ~ Myanmar Relief Effort

Published by Jason Welker under

Justgiving - SAS Myanmar Relief

With the official death count at 130,000 and rising, millions more still need help in the Irrawaddy Delta of Myanmar, where Cyclone Nargis swept through on May 2 destroying homes and lives in thousands of villages.

Shanghai American School is responding to the disaster by sponsoring International Development Enterprises, one of the only international NGOs with people on the ground in Burma. 125 of their staff are already in villages, constructing temporary shelters and providing 200 gallon water tanks to provide fresh water. Their resources are running thin, however, and they need our help.

With thanks, Jason
