Secure Donation
UNHCR Philippines | Rohingya Emergency
Nearly 1 million Rohingya refugees have sought safety in Bangladesh after fleeing persecution and violence in Myanmar. They’ve been through more than anyone should experience in a lifetime.
When will enough be enough?
They are desperate to return to their homes in Myanmar, but instead live in extremely overcrowded, and sometimes dangerous conditions in refugee camps, relying almost entirely on humanitarian assistance for survival. Annual monsoon rains and cyclones pose even more risk.
UNHCR is working with authorities and local volunteers to provide essential services and protection, including for women, children, and people with disabilities. But we need your support.
An additional gift from you will provide Rohingya refugees with safe shelter and protection.

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. 85 per cent of all funds raised go directly to field operations. 7 per cent is allocated for global programmes, helping refugees, internally displaced people, asylum seekers and stateless people under the UNHCR mandate around the world, and 8 per cent is for headquarters administration. 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.
UNHCR can reach the heart of a crisis within 72 hours. With your support, we can get life-saving supplies to the most vulnerable people in even the most desperate situations.
