Winter emergency appeal
As temperatures plummet around the world, so is global humanitarian funding making this winter even more treacherous for refugees.
Families are returning to Syria to find their homes reduced to rubble, while others in Jordan and Lebanon live in poor housing with no heating. People in Ukraine have seen their lives and dreams ripped apart, and they need protection, safety, and shelter. While in Afghanistan, millions of people have returned from Iran and Pakistan - many not by choice - to a country that has been ravaged by decades of conflict, economic collapse, and deadly earthquakes.
Supplies are running low, while temperatures drop even lower. With your support, we can provide the aid that families need the most.
