Secure Donation
Your donation to UNHCR's Winter Appeal will help refugees | donate.unhcr.org
Millions of vulnerable people across the Middle East, Afghanistan and Ukraine are facing a harsh winter and urgently need your help.
Ukrainian people are rushing to repair bombed-out houses before the first snows fall.
Displaced Afghans are tracking the rising cost of gas in despair, wondering how they can afford to stay warm while also feeding their children.
And Syrian refugees, who have been unable to return home for over a decade, simply don’t know how they will survive yet another gruelling winter in a leaky tent.
3.4 million refugees and internally displaced people across Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq, and Egypt – are in extreme need of assistance to prepare for the forthcoming winter.
UNHCR is providing shelter, cash assistance, and life-saving essentials such as thermal blankets and heating appliances.
Please donate now to help families find safety and warmth this winter.
UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, is a global organization working to save lives, protect rights and build a better future for refugees, internally displaced communities and stateless people. We work to ensure that everybody has the right to seek asylum and find refuge from violence or persecution.
Your money helps UNHCR provide protection, shelter and other forms of assistance, and advocacy on behalf of displaced and stateless people every year. We ensure that as many funds as possible are redirected to refugees, stateless persons and asylum-seekers. UNHCR staff work as closely as possible with and for people forced to flee, with 90 per cent of our workforce in field locations. For further details on UNHCR's budget, read our Global Report.
By choosing to give a regular donation, you will be helping UNHCR to plan ahead and invest in long-term projects to improve the lives the refugees.

UNHCR does, however, partner with dedicated fundraising associations in a number of countries as well as having country specific offices with their own fundraising capacity. These countries include the USA, Germany, Spain, Japan, Australia, Italy, Canada, UK, South Korea, Hong Kong and Belgium. In order to make tax deductible donations through these offices you will need to donate through their individual websites. We are, however, able to issue a receipt of donation from UNHCR international that may be accepted in certain instances. We would suggest that if in doubt you contact your local tax advisor for guidelines on whether your gift is eligible or not.
