Help us protect refugees in Yemen | DONATE NOW

Body

Yemen is gripped by the world’s worst humanitarian crisis, entirely man-made. The country’s brutal eight-year conflict has left more than 20 million people on the brink of starvation.

UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, is on the ground providing humanitarian relief and protection across Yemen to millions of displaced people. But we can’t do it without your support.  

Please donate to help refugee families rebuild their lives.

Why is a monthly donation better for refugees?

Thanks to a monthly contribution, refugees receive our help 

  • Faster: More predictable income allows us to respond immediately when a crisis occurs, ensuring that UNHCR is always the first to come to the aid of refugees in need. 

  • In a more durable manner: Thanks to monthly donations, UNHCR can go beyond short-term emergency aid, allowing us to plan ahead and to find durable solutions for and with refugees.  

  • In a more efficient way: Long-term, predictable income allows UNHCR to do what it does best, and that’s saving lives, protecting fundamental rights and building better futures. It lowers administrative costs and allows us to spend less time and energy on raising funds.

Why is it important that you help refugees?

Never before in history have there been so many people forced to flee war, violence or persecution. More than 100 million men, women 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 means that children are going without food, sick people are not receiving adequate care, and schools are not being built. 

Your contribution to the work of UNHCR is needed more than ever.

How can I stay informed of the impact of my donation?

We’d love to keep you up to date on the situation of people forced to flee around the world, on how UNHCR is protecting them, and how you're helping.

All you need to do when you are completing your donation is 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.”
