Red Cross continues to assist disaster survivors in Myanmar and China- Canadian Red Cross
Red Cross Response in China:
“Immediate relief is vital,” says Yunhong Zhang, Asia program manager for the Canadian Red Cross. “But at the same time we need to begin looking beyond this critical phase and towards helping people get back on their feet and rebuilding their lives.”
Total funds received for the Canadian Red Cross China Earthquake appeal are $3.1 million. This includes more than $2 million donated by generous Canadians and $1 million from the Government of Canada through CIDA.
Canadians wishing to make a financial donation to either of these appeals may give online at www.redcross.ca, call 1-800-418-1111 or contact their local Canadian Red Cross office. The 24-hour toll free line accepts Visa, MasterCard and American Express. Cheques should be made payable to the Canadian Red Cross, earmarked either “Myanmar Cyclone” or “China Earthquake” and mailed to the Canadian Red Cross National Office, 170 Metcalfe Street, Suite 300, Ottawa, Ontario, K2P 2P2.

Red Cross Response in China:
The Federation yesterday launched an emergency appeal for approximately $19 million to support 100,000 survivors in China for at least the next 12 months.
The focus of the appeal is to support the relief efforts of the Chinese Red Cross already underway. The Red Cross Society of China began providing emergency relief assistance immediately following the quake and hundreds of Red Cross volunteers continue to help with rescue and first aid while distributing relief supplies and providing shelter to thousands of people left homeless.“Immediate relief is vital,” says Yunhong Zhang, Asia program manager for the Canadian Red Cross. “But at the same time we need to begin looking beyond this critical phase and towards helping people get back on their feet and rebuilding their lives.”
Total funds received for the Canadian Red Cross China Earthquake appeal are $3.1 million. This includes more than $2 million donated by generous Canadians and $1 million from the Government of Canada through CIDA.
