Refugees need YOUR support now!

Did you know that the UN refugee agency relies on voluntary contributions for 95 per cent of its income? The five per cent of funding we receive from the United Nations is spent entirely on administration costs – meaning more of YOUR money goes to where it is needed most.

To make your donation online, first we need to know where you're from. Please select your country of residence from the drop-down menu below.



In some of the most unforgiving places on earth, YOUR support can provide protection, shelter, food and clean water, as well as education and medical care – all vital and urgent needs for people who have fled their homes to escape persecution or conflict.

There are now 11 million refugees worldwide, and a further 22 million people displaced within their own countries as a result of conflict. Sadly, the world's need for our work has never seemed so great. From emergency situations to ongoing conflicts and crises – wherever people have been forced from their homes – our staff are there to help, to shelter and to protect.

For refugees who have lost everything, a little goes a long way. Your support will help ensure that we can continue to be there – today and tomorrow, and for as long as we are needed.

Thank you for your support!
