UU Service Committee and UUA Partner to Launch Myanmar Cyclone Relief Fund
May 6, 2008
The Unitarian Universalist Service Committee (UUSC) and the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) have joined to launch a humanitarian relief fund to help survivors of the recent Myanmar (formerly known as Burma) cyclone. Both organizations strive to coordinate strategic response to natural or man-made humanitarian crises, especially when rights are threatened or when those in need are overlooked or neglected by traditional relief approaches.
Aid, which will be coordinated through the UUSC, will be channeled to humanitarian relief work in an effort to help survivors—especially those left out of traditional relief strategies—regain their lives and
livelihoods.
As of May 9, 2008, 243 gifts totaling $28,514 have been received.
Please support this relief effort.
