Soroptimist International South West Pacific

Dear Soroptimists and Friends,

The powerful earthquake which has shaken Myanmar, left families homeless, communities in ruins, and futures uncertain. The devastation is immense — but so is our determination to help.

Soroptimist International South East Asia Pacific has launched the “Myanmar Rising: Earthquake Response Fund” to bring urgent relief and long-term recovery to those most affected — especially women and children.

We are proud to support the Emergency Action Alliance, a trusted collective of leading Australian aid organisations, who are working together to deliver fast, effective, and coordinated help on the ground in Myanmar.

All donations to this fund will go directly to the Emergency Action Alliance.

DONATE NOW

Your contribution will help provide:

- Emergency food, water, and shelter

- Medical aid and trauma support

- Recovery and rebuilding of communities

- Empowerment and livelihood support for women and families

Let us stand with Myanmar. Let us help them rise again — stronger and safer.

Every donation counts. Every act of kindness matters.

Please give today.

Joanne Yeoh

Statement of Support for Earthquake Survivors in Myanmar

Soroptimist International South East Asia Pacific stands in solidarity with the people of Myanmar in the wake of the devastating earthquake that has caused immense loss and suffering. Our hearts go out to the survivors, the families who have lost loved ones, and all those affected by this tragic disaster.

In times of crisis, the strength of our communities is more important than ever. We commend the efforts of first responders, humanitarian organizations, and volunteers who are tirelessly working to provide aid and relief.

As an organisation committed to empowering women and communities, we will explore ways to assist those affected, especially women and children who are often the most vulnerable during disasters. We call upon our members and partners to extend their support in any way possible—whether through donations, advocacy, or direct assistance. The SISEAP leadership team is looking into a possible Special Appeal as we are gathering more information.

Together, we can bring hope and relief to those in need. Let us stand united in compassion and action for the people of Myanmar.
