In March of 2025, Myanmar was shaken by a 7.7 magnitude earthquake that killed over three thousand people and injured over five thousand people across the region. Kalaya and Aung were among the many people injured, but they were unable to get treatment as the local hospitals were not capable of treating the massive wave of patients brought in by the earthquake. Thankfully, Samaritan's Purse quickly traveled to Myanmar and established an Emergency Field Hospital to help the local hospitals treat their wounded, including Kalaya and Aung, who received the quality care they needed to recover from this natural disaster.
