14-5-08 Myanmar Disaster Relief Update - Stefan Radelich on the ground

FTH are pleased to confirm that International Director, Stefan Radelich arrived in Yangon early yesterday morning. Stefan has been able to meet up with one of the largest independent churches in Myanmar which is acting as a relief centre for survivors of the catastrophe.

The church had made three large distributions of food to about 2000 families with the scant resources of the church before the disaster. Clean drinking water, food and shelter remain the most important priorities.

When asked whether there is still a need for emergency funding - Stefan's reply was adamant,

"Absolutely. No question."

We are firming up supply routes for emergency cash, cross border bulk shipments. The greatest problem Ps. Mung is facing now - is an empty bank account. There are local supply points where supplies can be purchased at a reasonable about - but nobody accepts an IOU in Myanmar

12-5-08 Myanmar Disaster Relief Update - Enroute


The latest OCHA reports state the official death toll now is 22,997, with 42,119 missing and 1,430 injured, although unofficial figures are considerably higher.

Based on the original Government estimate of 975,858 persons affected three days after the disaster in the eight most seriously hit townships, the UN now estimates that at least 1,500,000 people are severely affected.

In the midst of this confusion and instability, FTH Director Stefan Radelich is enroute to Myanmar.

12-5-08 Myanmar Disaster Relief Update - Stefan Radelich


"The reports from our contacts on the ground describing the devastation are reminiscent the Tsunami in 2005 -- the scope and depth of the destruction is beyond what words or pictures can convey.

Millions are now homeless, there is no power, no running water and people are looting stores to survive. Two of the churches we know have generators to provide power, and were willing to be set up as relief centers, but they had no supplies to help the overwhelming number of survivors. Feed The Hungry is purchasing food, blankets, plastic sheeting, and other first-response supplies in Yangon to meet the need.

Buying food, blankets, tarps and other relief items in Yangon will be costly but it must be done. At times like this, cost is not an option. We have to do whatever it takes to help save lives and that means buying supplies in country for the time being.

Our plan is to transport relief supplies from Thailand to the FTH relief centers as soon as possible which will give us more buying power and insulate us from opportunistic suppliers in the affected area."

12-5-08 Myanmar Disaster Relief update - Not enough!


According to the news reports, the Burmese State Television stations have revised upward the official death toll to 28,458, while 33,416 were still missing after the cyclone.

The article leads with the headline that quantity of aid reaching Burmese survivors is 'nowhere near enough".

8-5-08 Myanmar Disaster Relief Update - Anything to Check-in?


FTH representative Stefan Radelich is booked to fly to Myanmar despite a lack of confirmation about the visa issue. Stefan will physically bring two water purification machines to assist.



The self-contained electro-mechanical water filtration and purification system which can produce over 225 liters gallons of pure drinking water per hour that is 99.999% free of bacterial, viral, or chemical pathogens. The system has been designed to remove sediment, bacteria and viruses from untreated water sources such as rivers, streams, lakes, ponds, springs, reservoirs, and wells.

8-5-08 Myanmar Disaster Relief Update - Travel Visas

Myanmar Government continues to delay the granting of temporary entry visas for all relief workers - greatly hindering the rescue efforts. FTH Logistics director Bob Boucek continues to lobby the Myanmar Embassy from Washington DC.

This is a continued, and urgent prayer request for a breakthrough in areas of travel visas, and customs to allow relief aid into Myanmar without military interference.

7-5-08 Myanmar Disaster Relief update

FTH has been able to contact on our church partners in Yangon (Rangoon) in Myanmar (Burma). Their 3000 member congregation and strong network of churches throughout the country places them as one it's leading churches groups.

Their facility is in good shape without power but with access to a generator. They have the manpower, they have the facility and capabilities but they have no supplies... yet.

6-5-08 Myanmar - Cyclone Nargis

FTH is working on securing distribution through to our three church partners in Yangoon. FTH will begin bringing disaster relief that will help survivors of the deadliest disaster to strike South East Asia since the 2004 Boxing Day Tsunami, and ensuring that it will not be subverted by government or military agencies.

Current estimates show over 10,000 people have lost their life and over 3,000 people are still missing.

More details will be posted here as they come to hand.

The Cry for Help..

Several months ago, we received this poignant email from Joan West of Liberty Christian Center (LCC) in California:
"Our church is doing missions work in Liberia, Africa, and currently we send monthly support to six orphanages. All our money buys is 1/2 cup of rice per day per child and some oil for cooking. The meal is supplemented with roots and fruits when available. This provision is nutritionally bankrupt and we need to find a solution to the nutrition problem."

Nicaragua/Honduras Hurricane Relief

Nicaragua/Honduras Hurricane Relief
FTH staff kept a watchful eye on the storm over Labor Day weekend and began mobilizing aid early Tuesday morning.

(CNN) Reports -- "Rescuers searched for survivors of Hurricane Felix on Thursday as the death toll from the powerful storm rose to nearly 100, according to The Associated Press. Residents cope Thursday with the damage from Hurricane Felix in La Pajara, northern Nicaragua. Ninety-eight Nicaraguans were killed, Abelino Cox told the AP. Cox is the spokesman for the Regional Emergency Committee in Puerto Cabezas, Nicaragua.

Felix barreled ashore about 7:45 a.m. ET Tuesday near the Honduras-Nicaragua border as a Category 5 storm with 160 mph winds, the most intense classification on the Saffir-Simpson scale used by meteorologists.

Jorge Ramon Arnesto Soza, executive secretary of the National System for the Prevention, Mitigation and Attention of Disasters, said the death toll was likely to increase as reports came in from remote areas.

Survivors of the storm struggled Thursday. An AP photographer in an isolated Nicaraguan village saw residents cracking coconuts to drink the milk because they had nothing else.

In Honduras, meanwhile, in addition to the 52 Miskito Indian survivors, an undetermined number of others aboard a boat were rescued, Echeverria said.

About 11,000 Miskito Indians in the isolated region did not evacuate before the storm. Honduran officials had trouble getting to the remote region but did manage to evacuate more than 3,100, according to regional army commander Col. Carlos Edgar Mejia of the 115th Infantry Brigade.

The United Nations' World Food Program said in a statement that the hurricane ripped the roof off a Nicaragua hotel where staff members were staying and destroyed a food aid warehouse.

Nearly 80 percent of Nicaraguans live below the poverty level, many in ill-constructed homes.Felix was the second Category 5 storm to hit the region this year, marking the first recorded instance of two such storms making landfall in a single hurricane season."

Feed The Hungry responds
At present more than 175 tons (350,000 pounds) of needed food aid is being shipped to in-country ministry partners along the Honduran coast and in north-eastern Nicaragua.

"We're thankful that significant supplies were pre-positioned in Texas, ready for shipment", said Stefan Radelich, Director of Feed The Hungry. "Just days before Hurricane Felix came across the Sea of Cortez, we also received a large supply of cornmeal—a major food staple for Central America—from our good friends at Wilson Corn Products in Rochester, Indiana."

The first shipment of supplies will arrive on September 12th to aid the thousands of affected residents as they return to their evacuated towns, cities, and homelands.

Every Child Every Day!
Under the direction of Peter Sumrall, Feed The Hungry began a new initiative in 2005, a daily committment to feed vulnerable children who have been taken in by Christian Orphanages and Childcare Ministries around the globe:

Children who have been orphaned by war and disease.
Children from unimaginably poverty-stricken families.
Children torn from their homes and turned into refugees by natural and man-made tragedies.
Children who, without the care and protection of these Christian orphanages, simply might not survive.
"This is a chance to fulfill a significant part of the vision that God originally gave my father, 20 years ago" says Peter Sumrall; "It's been my desire to return to the work my father began in the 60's -- helping childcare ministries and orphanages with the resources they need to take in and reach more hurting children with God's love."

Darfur, Sudan
The Darfur region of Sudan-- you may have heard about it in the news. It's one of the most tragic, most savage killing fields in the world. For two decades the horror of civil war has inflicted suffering on a staggering scale: Rape. Torture. Hundreds of thousands dead. Mllions displaced. Today Feed The Hungry has an unprecedented opportunity to go into this overwhelmingly Muslim land with life-saving food . . . and to share the message of hope in Jesus Christ. In fact, every dollar donated to this project will be multiplied seven-and-a-half times!

Mozambique Flood Relief

On Friday, February 23, a tropical cyclone bearing 175 mph winds swept in from the Indian Ocean, tearing into central Mozambique. As if that weren't crushing enough -- the country was already fighting the worst flooding in 50 years.
300,000 Mozambicans now must "survive" on dirty water, little food, and minimal hope. Daily life has been replaced with daily fear of water-borne diseases and starvation. 100,000 children are at risk ... living in crowded, makeshift camps that don't have enough food.
On Saturday, February 24, Feed The Hungry put relief efforts into motion to rush aid to our ministry partners in Mozambique, starting with a quarter-million meal packs trucked up from storage facilities in neighbouring Swaziland... More info
