Close your eyes and try to imagine. You wake up in the middle of the night terrorized by the war and chaos around you. It’s getting closer and you are scared. You don’t have a choice anymore; You collect your children and you run.

Every two seconds, somewhere on the planet, someone is forced to flee their home to reach safety. If we were in their shoes, how would we want to be treated after we have lost everything, and our dreams and those of our children have been shattered to a million pieces?

With your help, UNHCR can give refugees what we’d want for ourselves and our loved ones in moments of tragedy. Immediate support. Shelter. Food. Water. Blankets. Medical supplies. Protection from harm. The chance to go to school and the hope of a bright future.

But we can’t do it without you!

Help brighten the lives of refugees who lost everything.
