Bitget Provides Critical Aid To Families Affected By Earthquake In Myanmar
In Brief
Bitget initiated humanitarian support in Myanmar following a 7.7 magnitude earthquake that struck the Sagaing region on March 28th.
Cryptocurrency exchange and Web3 firm Bitget initiated humanitarian support in Myanmar following a 7.7 magnitude earthquake that struck the Sagaing region on March 28th.
The quake, which was felt as far as Bangkok, intensified the challenges faced by a region already affected by ongoing conflict and economic hardship.
In collaboration with local organizations, Bitget facilitated the distribution of 150 Emergency Resilience Kits to families considered to be at heightened risk. These households included individuals displaced from their homes, those caring for dependents such as infants or elderly persons, and recipients of limited aid.
The kits were designed to address multiple needs, containing hygiene products, bedding, cooking supplies, water filtration tools, and essential medications. The operation was not without its challenges. Navigating security risks, logistical hurdles, and the potential for aid diversion in a conflict zone required thorough planning and deep community trust. Bitget’s partners on the ground leveraged their local expertise to ensure equitable distribution, reaching families whose needs might otherwise have been invisible in the chaos of crisis response.
“True humanitarian action isn’t just about meeting urgent needs — it’s about seeing the unseen,” said Bitget CEO Gracy Chen in a written statement.
“As the second-largest crypto exchange ecosystem, we believe that real growth in our industry must be matched by real responsibility. Crypto was built on the ideals of empowerment and global connection. In times of crisis, these ideals must be translated into action. Our support for Myanmar’s affected communities is a reminder that innovation must go hand in hand with human impact. As we help build the future of finance, we are equally committed to building a future where no one is left behind,” she added.
Localized Relief Efforts Ease Pressure On Displaced Families In Sagaing Region
The initiative had effects beyond the immediate provision of supplies. For families displaced by the disaster and residing in overcrowded temporary shelters, the aid kits helped ease strain on limited communal resources. In many cases, the assistance provided the first sense of stability since the earthquake, serving as a sign that affected individuals had not been overlooked.
As ongoing recovery continues in the Sagaing region, this response illustrates how localized coordination and timely delivery can support communities in crisis. A combination of operational agility and contextual awareness contributed to reaching those in urgent need amid challenging conditions.
