Help us protect Afghan refugees | DONATE NOW
PLEASE HELP TODAY
The newest wave of conflict – the latest in 40 years – has forced more than half a million Afghan people from their homes so far in 2021.
The crisis is taking a heavy toll on women and children, who make up 80% of Afghanistan’s internally displaced people. Alongside homelessness, food scarcity and the threat of violence, displaced Afghans are now facing also a harsh winter.
Help us deliver aid before the worst of winter hits.
UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, has assisted half a million people displaced within Afghanistan this year with emergency aid. We are providing essential items to including blankets, solar panels and family tents to withstand high winds and the cold.
As winter hits, you can help us ramp our response to provide Afghans forced to flee with winter protection.
Please donate now.
- €100 could provide 40 sleeping mats to those affected by the displacement crisis in Afghanistan.
- €75 is enough to provide a kit of core relief items (including blankets, sleeping mats, jerrycans, a bucket, mosquito nets and kitchen set) to a refugee families in Pakistan.
- A monthly donation of €25 over one year allows us to provide a sanitary kit (including 3 bars of laundry soap, 3 bars of toilet soap and 2 boxes of sanitary napkins) to 3 Afghan displaced families in Iran each month.
Our fundraising promise
With a monthly contribution, refugees receive our help:
-
Faster: More predictable income allows us to respond immediately when a crisis occurs. Thanks to this, UNHCR is always the first to arrive to refugees in need.
-
More durable: Monthly donations allow UNHCR to go above & beyond short-term emergency aid and allows us to plan and build better futures together with refugees.
-
More efficiently: Long-term predictable income allows UNHCR to do what it does best, and that’s saving lives, protecting fundamental rights and build better futures. It lowers administrative costs and allows us to spend less on raising funds.
With a monthly contribution, you can:
-
Make a bigger difference: A monthly contribution has an immediate short-term impact where it helps save lives, but extends into a long-term impact to build better futures.
-
Have full control: You can very easily increase, decrease or cancel your monthly donation by emailing us at [email protected]
-
Save time: From the moment you create the monthly donation, the money will automatically be deducted with a secured transfer and you will make a real difference every month
-
Be very proud: You are there for refugees when they need you the most
Never in history have there been so many people that had to flee from war, violence or persecution. More than 82 million men, woman and children are desperately in need of a safer future. They are people just like you and me. UNHCR is helping them, but we cannot do this alone.
In order to continue to provide life-saving aid, we are in urgent need of more financial support. Lack of funding is leading to schools not being built, sick people not receiving the adequate care and food shortages.
Your contribution to the work of UNHCR is more than ever needed.
We’d love to keep you up-to-date on the situation of refugees all over the world, on how UNHCR is protecting them, and on how you can get involved. All you need to check the box “Yes, I would like to receive UNHCR news about the impact of my support on the daily lives of refugees and their future.” when you are completing your donation.
