How I can help with relief programs China and Myanmar?

I am in the eighth grade in Texas, and I want to know if there's any way to get my family, friends, and community involved in helping the people of China and Myanmar. Please let me know what opportunities there are for me.

How I can help with relief programs China and Myanmar?
You can't The leaders of that country do not want anyones help. Try emailing the United Nations and check what they are looking for.

History is showing they really want is to receive aid and distribute it themselves after they take what they want for themselves and their troops. Then what little is left is sent out for relief relabeled to show that it is from their government.
Reply:I am a Myanmar citizen. I think it might be hard for you to directly help people in Myanmar. What I would suggest you is try to contact local NGOs in Myanmar or, redcross, or Unicef. They do accept different kind of aid and distribute to people in Myanmar. It is a lot better way. Also make sure you do not contact Myanmar Government to distribute any kind of your aid. They will just take away or sell them back to those who are suffering. If needed, please try to contact
