When floods struck the Dioceses of Mandalay and Taungoo Dioceses in Myanmar in September 2024, Naw War Lae Mu was living in Naung Bo village. She had her house and many of her possessions damaged and swept away. The 32-year-old woman, along with her husband and daughter, became displaced.

Australians know how devastating floods can be. ABM supporters gave generously to our flood response. We supported our local church partner, the Church of the Province of Myanmar (CPM), to provide cash grants to 916 households affected by the September floods.

Naw War Lae Mu used the cash grant to purchase a weaving loom and materials to restart a weaving business. Naw War Lae Mu expresses profound gratitude.

Others used their cash grants to replenish their farms and repair their houses.

It’s good to know that assistance from ABM supporters helped so many people get back on their feet.
