Become a Refugee Guardian Today - Donate to UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency
Children and families living through crises and conflict are among the most at risk. That’s why we need to be present—in places torn apart by violence, in villages reduced to rubble by natural disasters, and in refugee camps where children arrive traumatized and desperate for safety.
There are more people around the world who are forcibly displaced than ever before. An unprecedented 123 million have been forced from home, due to persecution, conflict, violence, human rights violations, or events seriously disturbing public order.
You can make a difference.
Your support helps ensure that refugees and displaced families caught up in the next emergency can access vital assistance, protection, and shelter as soon as possible, even in the most underreported crises.
Together we can be stronger in an uncertain world. Together we can be prepared. Together we can be more certain of making a difference.
You can provide urgently needed relief before the headlines hit, by giving a monthly gift.
Please donate now.
You can increase, decrease, or suspend your monthly support at any time by contacting [email protected]

*Tax Disclaimer: Donations made directly to UNHCR may not be tax-deductible in your country of residence. Laws regarding contributions to United Nations agencies vary from country to country. UNHCR does, however, partner with dedicated fundraising associations in a number of countries as well as having country-specific offices with their own fundraising capacity. These countries include the USA, Germany, Spain, Japan, Australia, Italy, Canada, UK, South Korea, Hong Kong and Belgium. In order to make tax-deductible donations through these offices, you will need to donate through their individual websites. We are, however, able to issue a receipt of donation from UNHCR international that may be accepted in certain instances. We would suggest that if in doubt you contact your local tax advisor for guidelines on whether your gift is eligible or not.
