Regional State of Emergency: Floods, Earthquakes, Typhoons, Tsunami Strike

For every person killed, three people will suffer a serious disability. They need your help now

Natural disasters have been wreaking havoc across Asia and the Pacific. cbm has a unique and urgent role to play in helping the survivors.

Many are dead, but three times as many will suffer serious disability.

As the world’s leading disability and development organisation, cbm has the specialist expertise to prevent these disabilities and help the most vulnerable survivors.

Please help us so we can help them.

Typhoons, earthquakes, floods, tsunami. The onslaught of disaster upon disaster has devastated our Asian and Pacific neighbours.

Hundreds are dead. Countless homes destroyed and lives have been shattered.

If ever there was a time to send an emergency donation it is now. The survivors desperately need your help.

Disaster is always worst for people affected by disability

Typhoon Ketsana in the Philippines – hundreds dead, three million affected. Hundreds of thousands are now stranded in evacuation camps. Their homes have been destroyed. They are in grave danger of serious illness and permanent disabilities.

Massive earthquakes in the Western Sumatra region of Indonesia have left hundreds dead and many still missing. Nearly 1 million people are affected, amid the destruction of schools, churches, hospitals and homes.

The heaviest monsoon floods in more than 100 years have hit parts of India. cbm projects are under water in Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka. Many vulnerable people are at risk.

Across all these disaster zones, the gift you donate today will help people with disability get the life-saving support they need.

As well as your gift, please pray for all the emergency workers and for the
safety of people with a disability. They are always at the highest risk of disease, homelessness or worse.

Please act now. This terrible series of disasters has left so many victims and survivors. Your gift will help the most vulnerable of all.
