Burma: $2 million raised for monks

May 25, 2008

Avaaz Members from 124 Countries Donate $2,000,000 to the
Burmese People

Dear friends,

In the days since a catastrophic cyclone struck Burma and
killed over 100,000 people, Avaaz members have donated $2
million (almost 1.3 million Euros) to the aid effort. Our
community has given more than many governments, and our aid
hasn't been stopped at the border like theirs -- we've
supported Burmese monks and other aid groups who have
worked without their brutal government's permission. You

the report on our website, see pictures, and donate or
