UNHCR | Hardest hit by flooding and drought

Families fleeing violence now face deadly floods, droughts, and rising hunger. Displaced people are among the hardest hit.

Help people feed their families and build better futures.

In places like Malawi, Kenya, and South Sudan, crops are failing and entire communities are being uprooted.

Without food, clean water, or shelter, families are struggling to survive.

UNHCR is on the ground before, during, and after disaster strikes.

We build defences before floods hit. We deliver food, water, and shelter in emergencies. And we help families rebuild through farming, fishing, and small businesses.

We don’t give up. And we won’t leave people to face climate disasters alone.

What does UNHCR do?

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.

How does UNHCR spend my donation?

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.

Why should I donate monthly or on a regular basis?

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].
