Greetings-
As you all know by now, the death toll from Cyclone Nargis hitting Burma has been estimated at 100,000 with another 43,000 Burmese missing and a million homeless.
The Heart Touch Project's partner organization in Thailand-The Sangha Metta Project is able to get supplies and aid to the Burmese directly through a monastic foundation which has both monk and lay members and which has a long and good reputation for charitable work in many townships and districts all throughout the country .
We are helping them by raising funds here which will go directly to the people who have been affected.
I know that we are all nervous about our own economy at this time but even a small contribution will go a long way in Burma. The funds will be used to provide food, medical care, and shelter for the homeless.
Thanks so much for your support. We will keep you posted with the results of your contribution.
