In recent months, the UN refugee agency has responded to one emergency after another – in Kenya and Chad, Myanmar, China and Iraq. The situations are diverse, but the immediate need is always the same – shelter and protection.

With stockpiles stretched to the limit, we desperately need basic supplies such as blankets and tents to continue to meet these urgent needs – find out how you can help us today

12 year old Naw Lwai (pictured above) was staying with friends when Cyclone Nargis hit her village in Myanmar's Pyin Sa Lu Township. Her mother was killed.

Without shelter, refugees are at the mercy of the elements – all they can think about is survival. But with your help we can protect them; we can give them the security they need to cope with their loss and start to hope for a better future.

Please give shelter and hope to refugees and others like Naw Lwai by donating today.
