Support Burmese Relief and Rebuild Efforts

Cyclone Nargis hit Burma on Saturday, May 3^rd. So far, accounts of casualties may reach 23,000, and tens of thousands more may be hurt and homeless. The Foundation for the People of Burma is actively organizing relief and rebuild efforts. Please visit www.foundationburma.org for more information on the situation, and to lend your support.

On Friday, May 16, 2008, we hosted an emergency briefing for professional advisors, clients, and donors about relief and recovery needs, and effective philanthropic strategies in response to the crisis in Burma. The program was co-hosted by Give2Asia, The Foundation for the People of Burma, and The San Francisco Foundation. Listen to the audio of the briefing here, or visit our Calendar to learn more about the briefing. (Please note: the audio file is a 17 MB MP3 file, and it may take a few moments to download.)
