LATEST: The withdrawal of funding from the United States and other donors has drastically reduced critical aid services across Myanmar. According to the UN, over 16 million people require humanitarian assistance.
Myanmar has been devastated by conflict since the military coup in 2021, and recent funding cuts in humanitarian aid have exacerbated an already desperate situation.
Your donation to the Myanmar Humanitarian Response today will help our Christian Partners in Myanmar respond with much-needed emergency support for families such as:
- Food and nutrition support for those who are displaced
- Hygiene items to help prevent diseases
- Essentials such as temporary shelter supplies to keep families safe
- Healthcare to help those impacted by the earthquake.
Please also join us in prayer as we ask that God would comfort the people of Myanmar and bring lasting peace to the region.

Violent conflict between Myanmar’s military junta and armed resistance forces means that since 2021, the number of displaced people in Myanmar has risen dramatically. The situation continues to deteriorate with the escalation of armed clashes. More than 3.7 million people were internally displaced as of April 2026, an increase of 1.6 million in one year—and this doesn’t include the thousands who have fled the country seeking refuge elsewhere.
Families are living in makeshift homes and IDP (internally displaced persons) camps scattered throughout Myanmar.
Finding enough food to feed everyone is a constant battle.
Cramped living conditions increase the risk of disease and, in worst case scenarios, entire camps and villages can be destroyed by disasters such as earthquakes, heavy storms or flooding, leaving already vulnerable families with the momentous task of rebuilding their shelters.
Your donation will be directed to our local Christian Partners in Myanmar who are providing urgently needed humanitarian aid for internally displaced families, as well as training and supporting humanitarian staff.
