IMANA is raising fund for providing medical assistance to the Rohingyas of Myanmar
Here below is a message from Dr. Najma Khanani of the IMANA. She will be going to Rohingya camps in Bangladesh with IMANA.
Please, help the organization to render help to the 800,000 Rohingya refugees now forced out of their homes in Arakan (Rakhine) state of Myanmar and settle in Bangladesh as a result of genocidal crimes of the Myanmar government and bigots of the Rakhine state.
You can find the link to donate in IMANA's website.

Please be a part of bringing aid to the Rohingya refugees who are being forced to flee from their homes in Myanmar to take refuge in Bangladesh.
I will be traveling to the refugee camps in Bangladesh as part of IMANA's Save Rohingya Medical Mission Team along with three other physicians on March 16. We will be providing medical care to the refugees in the camps that have resulted due to the forced exodus of the Roihingya from their homes in Myanmar. The camps are spread over several miles with close to 700,000 refugees living in unimaginable conditions. They are completely dependent on humanitarian aid. The team of four doctors with local staff will see about 3,000 patients in a one week period.
PLEASE OPEN YOUR HEART AND DONATE GENEROUSLY TO THIS CAMPAIGN. YOUR DONATION WILL GO DIRECTLY TOWARD MEDICAL CARE FOR THE REFUGEES. Your donation goes for on the ground costs only, such as medicine and needed equipment. The volunteer medical team will defray their own cost to go on the mission and all fundraising we do goes only to IMANA.
The devastating plight of the Rohingya of Myanmar can not be understated. I first vaguely heard about this issue several years ago. Then a very dear friend of mine asked me to join her on a trip to NYC to meet someone who was trying to work to help the Rohingya. After meeting this individual, my friend and I quickly realized any work towards aid at that time for the Rohingya would require undertaking some risk. At that time the Rohingya were still mostly in Myanmar where the government was not allowing for any aid. The devastation, abuse and inhumane treatment of the Rohingya continues in Myanmar today. Please go to this link on NPR to learn more about this very real issue.
With the IMANA Save Rohingya Mission I now have an opportunity to "do something". You can also be apart of doing something with your donation. IMANA has requested I raise $1000. However I have faith in my family and friends, so I have raised the bar for you all to $5000, because I know you want to "do something" too.
PS. The identity of my dear friend will be revealed when we hit 5K
