We are looking for ways to provide emergency food and nutrition aid to displaced and vulnerable populations that are living in active combat zones.

Rising costs of fuel and food 

•  Fuel prices in Myanmar were more than 133% higher at the end of March than they were in February 2021 (WFP's March Market Price update).

•  Prices of edible oil increased by 23% from February to March 2022.

• The typical rice price rose by 7% from February to March 2022.

 

Access concerns

• Largely restricted travel authorizations, which are mainly active in conflict zones.

• Largely restricted movement and access to information

• Restrictions on the size of aid groups/organizations and where they can be located

 

Addressing humanitarian needs: Several humanitarian needs for those affected in Myanmar are increasing.

• Food insecurity

• Water scarcity and hygiene needs

• Lack of medical care and medication

We support families most in need 

​

ZigWay is a social enterprise that aims to help people lift themselves out of poverty.  We offer a monthly subscription service to ensure low income families can access household essentials affordably. We've already delivered enough food for 1.4 million meals with our service.

​

In these extraordinary times, we’ve dedicated ourselves to giving people an extra helping hand.  We’re now co-operating with local community organisations in Yangon, Kachin State and Shan State to arrange in-kind and cash distribution to families suffering from economic hardships. 

​

Our team is working tirelessly to battle stock shortages, labour scarcity, price hikes and safety concerns, but we are unrelenting in our desire to support people through this difficult period.
