Donate to UNHCR | Hardest Hit by hunger and climate

343 million people are facing acute hunger. And refugees are among the hardest hit.

Conflict, displacement, poverty, and extreme weather all contribute to food shortages and hunger. Refugees and people forced to flee are often among the hardest hit and the least able to recover.

Conflict disrupts the growing, production and transportation of food, leading to food shortages and massive price increases. In turn, food shortages often fuel tensions and conflict, creating a vicious cycle.

Help prevent hunger and malnutrition.

Your donation today helps deliver emergency food and essential aid to refugee families facing hunger and hardship. Your support helps families to rebuild their lives by empowering their skills to be self-sustaining.

What does UNHCR do?

UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, is a global organisation dedicated to saving lives, protecting rights and building a better future for refugees. We work to ensure that everybody has the right to seek asylum and find safe refuge, having fled violence, persecution, war or disaster at home. Learn more here

Where does my donation to UNHCR go to?

Your money helps UNHCR provide protection, shelter and other forms of assistance, and advocacy on behalf of refugees 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

Is my donation tax deductible in Malaysia?

Donations made to UNHCR Malaysia will not be applicable for tax deduction. We will still issue a donation receipt to confirm your donation amount. 

Why should I donate 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 of 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 donor[email protected]
