The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies launched an emergency appeal Sunday for $115 million to help victims of the devastating earthquake in Myanmar.
“To scale up support, the IFRC launches an emergency appeal for 100 million Swiss francs ($115 million) to assist 100,000 people (20,000 households) with life-saving relief and early recovery support over the next 24 months,” the world’s largest humanitarian network said in a statement.
