UNHCR | Donate today and help people who’ve been forced to flee in Yemen

Yemen is gripped by one of the world's worst humanitarian crises — and a new escalation in fighting on the western coast is forcing tens of thousands more to flee their homes.

Families are running with little more than they can carry. Tens of thousands have been newly displaced across the south and west in recent days — and some are now risking dangerous boat crossings to reach Djibouti, where women, children and older people are arriving on the shore in need of shelter, food and protection.

For many, this is not the first time. Years of conflict, economic collapse and environmental disaster have already displaced nearly 4.8 million Yemenis. More than 2 million children are out of school, pushing a generation into uncertainty.

UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, is on the ground in Yemen and Djibouti — registering new arrivals, and set to deliver shelter, cash assistance and critical protection to families on both sides of the sea.

Yemeni families can't wait another day. Please donate now to save lives.

Summary of donation information

One-off donation: Your gift will help displaced Yemenis and refugees worldwide who need your support.

 

Monthly donation: Consider making a monthly donation. Monthly donations help assist more families forced to flee. By making a regular gift to UNHCR, you can provide refugees and displaced people worldwide with ongoing relief, protection, and hope for a better future.

Your donation will provide life-saving support to people forced to flee where it is mostly needed in Yemen or other emergencies worldwide.

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.

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 donors@unhcr.org.
