Global campaign sends messages of hope to earthquake-hit Myanmar

Mizzima

In the wake of the devastating March 28 earthquake and ongoing aftershocks in Myanmar, a grassroots initiative called Sending Love to Myanmar is bringing messages of hope and solidarity from around the world

Launched as a people-powered global campaign, Sending Love to Myanmar collects heartfelt photos, messages, and creative expressions to remind communities in crisis in Myanmar that they are not alone. Organisers say their campaign, built on compassion, aims to provide emotional strength to people affected not only by natural disaster but by years of ongoing conflict and isolation.

So far, organisers say, 141 individuals from 32 countries — including India, Italy, Egypt, South Korea, Nigeria, and the U.S. — have submitted their messages in Phase 1 of the campaign. Participants from across Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Americas have joined in solidarity, showing, says the organisers, that global empathy can cross borders and conflict zones.
