In the heart of Myanmar, the Diocese of Loikaw is facing a grave humanitarian crisis. Ongoing conflicts have forced millions to flee their homes, and in Chin State, recent airstrikes have devastated communities, including Catholic churches. With your help, we can provide essential support to those most in need.
The conflict in Myanmar has displaced over three million people, with children making up a significant portion of the displaced population. The situation is dire in Loikaw, where 170,000 people, representing 73% of the internally displaced people (IDPs) in southern Myanmar, struggle to survive. The Diocese of Loikaw has established large-scale camps to offer shelter and basic necessities, but the lack of clean drinking water remains a critical issue.
The Loikaw Diocese aims to provide clean water to over 60,000 children, women, and men currently living in 50 IDP camps. Access to clean water is essential for drinking, cooking, and maintaining proper sanitation, which is crucial for preventing illness and promoting good health.
