“Our orphans are outside sleeping under trees because their home was destroyed,” Uncle Tang shared by phone. BTJ, together with Uncle Tang, has been working in Myanmar helping orphans for more than 20 years.
The very first BTJ orphanage was started by a Chinese missionary who was ministering in the villages of northern Myanmar when he began to meet children on his journeys who had lost their parents from illness or landmines.
The total number of people who have died from the earthquake is estimated to be more than 2,700 people, but the count is still going up as bodies are found during evacuation. Hundreds more remain missing, meaning the death toll is almost certain to rise. Buildings are continuing to collapse even five days after the earthquake, creating more casualties and perilous conditions for rescuers.
BTJ has already sent $10,000 USD to the disaster area. 100% of all BTJ Disaster Relief donations will be used for this effort.
