WCK's Myanmar & Thailand Earthquake Response (Mar. 2025)
của WORLD CENTRAL KITCHEN INCORPORATED
World Central Kitchen’s Relief Team is en route to Southeast Asia, where a magnitude 7.7 earthquake struck Myanmar and Thailand.
The March 28 temblor caused massive destruction to buildings, infrastructure, and communities. At least 144 people were killed in Myanmar alone, with thousands more missing and injured. A 6.4 magnitude aftershock contributed to further damage. Local authorities remain concerned about more aftershocks and resulting tsunamis.
In Bangkok, Thailand, a high-rise collapsed, killing at least 10 people and injuring many more. Our teams are en route to Bangkok to assess the situation. WCK is working with local restaurants and members of the community to establish connections and access the most impacted areas.
WCK is first to the frontlines, providing meals in response to humanitarian, climate, and community crises. When disaster strikes, WCK’s Relief Team mobilizes to the frontlines with the urgency of now to start cooking and provide meals to people in need. By partnering with organizations on the ground and activating a network of food trucks or emergency kitchens, WCK provides freshly made, nutritious meals to communities impacted by disasters quickly and effectively. We know that good food provides not only nourishment, but also comfort and hope, especially in times of crisis.
WCK has provided more than 450 million fresh, nourishing meals for communities around the world. Your donation today will be used to support our emergency food relief efforts.
