UNHCR | Donate to help refugees and displaced families

More than 122 million people have been forced to flee war, conflict, and persecution from Ukraine, Sudan, Afghanistan, Yemen, and other parts of the world.

They need to be protected. They need shelter, access to clean water, health care, education, and jobs. They need a fair chance.  

With your help, UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency can give refugees what we’d want for ourselves and our loved ones. Protection from harm. Shelter. Food. Water. Blankets. Medical supplies. The chance to go to school. The hope of a better future.  

But we can’t do it without your support.  

Please give what you can to help refugee families rebuild their lives.

What does UNHCR do?

UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, is a global organization dedicated to saving lives, protecting rights, and building a better future for refugees, internally displaced communities, and stateless people.

We work to ensure that everyone has the right to seek asylum and find safe refuge from violence, conflict, or persecution.

What makes monthly giving so impactful?

 

By choosing to give monthly, you help UNHCR plan ahead, respond faster, and provide refugees with long-term support they can rely on.

  • Faster response in emergencies: Your monthly donation ensures UNHCR can act immediately when crises strike — sending help where it’s needed most.
  • Sustained, life-changing support: Regular gifts provide a stable source of funding that allows us to go beyond emergency relief and deliver shelter, education, and protection every day.
  • Simple and flexible: Select the Monthly option in the donation form to set up your recurring gift. You can update or pause your donation anytime by contacting our Donor Care team at [email protected].
How does UNHCR spend my donation?
