Supporting by Permias Athens, the team for Burma fundraising already collected more than $1000 to be given to Burmese people who suffered by disaster recently. Today Lauri Hlavacs from International Student Union (ISU) and Muhammad Chozin from Permias Athens just returned from the Red Cross to send the first deposit. The deposit will be transferred directly to the Myanmar Red Cross so they can purchase food and aid locally - was $874.10.
The Burma fundraising team will continue their efforts by giving out grilled cheese for donations (not "sellling") Friday night 5/23 from about 7~8pm to 2am. The table will be at the corner of Court St. and Washington (by the Courthouse). If you have a card table, or something similar to lend for the night, please contact Molly Roth mr172705@ohio.edu.
Lauri will make another drop-off at the Red Cross office on Tuesday 5/27, so if you can get in touch with her next weekend she will get the donations from you then. Remember to tell people donations can be tax deductible if they write a check! The donations can be dropped off any time at the Athens County Chapter of the American Red Cross at 100 South May Avenue (turn right at the Speedway on East State Street).
