Answering the call for help

Our CEO, Helen Forde, shares her heartfelt thanks with you—our generous supporters—for the compassion you’ve shown to our friends in Myanmar during this time of immense hardship.

Your support is making a real difference. On the ground, our Jesuit partners are working tirelessly to deliver life-saving aid: food, clean water, shelter, medicine and education to those who need it most.

This is all made possible through Jesuit Mission’s Emergency Action Fund, which ensures urgent assistance is delivered directly through trusted local Jesuit partners and their Church networks.

Thanks to support from Australian donors, the Jesuit Mission Emergency Action Fund, since 2021 has helped over 850,000 women, men and children in 14 countries to survive devastation, crisis and turmoil.

By donating today, you can help bring vital relief and hope to those suffering in war-torn Myanmar and beyond.
