Helping from overseas

All through Myanmar, a diverse and brave civil resistance movement is fighting to restore democracy. But taking part in protests and strikes means a loss of income, in a country where one in four people already live in poverty. The military hopes that this will force people to return to work, and weaken the protests.

Donations allow the people of Myanmar to continue their fight without worrying about feeding their families. Support Myanmar provides a list of verified and secure fundraisers.
