After recent sectarian violence in Rakhine state in western Myanmar, initially  20,000 were left homeless and destitute.  This number has now swelled to 90,000. BGR partners are trying to provide immediate aid for at least 400 of the most critically hit families.  The initial stage would include distributing very basic emergency kits to help meet the families' most immediate needs.  The family kits will provide drinking water, rice, blankets, mosquito nets, and cooking utensils where they are needed the most. Please pray for their needs to be met. You can help by donating to BGR's Rakhine Relief Fund.
