UNHCR: Help families affected by the climate crisis
In the East and Horn of Africa, the climate crisis is pushing millions of refugees and vulnerable communities to the brink. Recurring droughts and floods are disrupting lives, communities and basic needs like shelter, food and water. This is leading to the loss of crops, livestock, and income. With little means to adapt, displaced families are suffering the most.

UNHCR is supporting families with vital services like healthcare, food, water, sanitation, shelter, protection, cash grants and counselling, in Kenya, Ethiopia, Somalia, and South Sudan.
We are also helping to create long-lasting change that will protect refugees and displaced people for generations to come, such as providing clean energy solutions, as well as reforestation programmes in Kenyan camps, land restoration in Ethiopia, along with disaster risk reduction support in Somalia and South Sudan.
Your generous support will help to provide a lifeline to people caught between conflict and the climate crisis.

How would you like to donate?
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. UNHCR staff work as closely as possible with and for people forced to flee, with 90 per cent of our workforce based 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.
Faster help: Monthly donations allow UNHCR to respond to emergencies when a crisis occurs. Your gift can go where it's most needed.
Support of long-term operations: More predictable income helps UNHCR go beyond short-term emergency aid and provide families with ongoing relief and protection every single day.
Easy to donate: To set up a recurring donation, please choose the Monthly option in the form. You can always update your donations by contacting our Donor Care team at [email protected].
