Give list: Cyclone Mocha
On 14 May, Cyclone Mocha hit Myanmar’s Rakhine State, northwest region, and neighbouring Bangladesh, including the Cox’s Bazar refugee camp which is home to approximately 900,000 Rohingya refugees. It was one of the worst storms the area has faced in decades and has devastated homes, schools and vital infrastructure (including hospitals, banks and religious buildings) across the impact zone. Almost 5.4 million people are estimated to have been in its path.
Immediate needs include shelter, clean water, sanitation, hygiene, and food assistance. As the situation evolves and communication channels from the area improve, charities working locally will seek to increase support in affected communities. Below is a list of charities that have launched appeals to aid relief efforts in Bangladesh and Myanmar to date.
While the entities listed below are all known to APS, we do not conduct a detailed analysis of their financial position and governance ahead of their inclusion in this list. Each charity’s audited financials are available to view on the ACNC website. This is not an exhaustive list of the many not-for-profit organisations working in this space
