First of all, I want to clarify some things about fundraising in Myanmar. Many people are still in too much shock to set up formal fundraising platforms. Even for those who have, it is extremely difficult to transfer funds with high transfer fees and bank limits. Still, I cannot recommend donating to large organizations like the Red Cross, those funds are sure not to see the light of day.
I am only sharing links that have been shared to me by someone who has family in Myanmar, either my own family, or my friends. Some of the funds may be linked to Christian organizations due to the presence of missionaries in the country that have international connections unlike the Buddhist majority. I will not hold it against you if you decide not to donate to them.
Facebook is also the most popular social media within Myanmar with international presence. Some organizations may not have information other than on Facebook.
It is very hard to contact people in Myanmar due to the limited access to power and reliable communications as well. If you reach out to these organizations, understand that they might have limited capacity to respond to you. Please be patient.
