Winter Emergency Fund

79.5 million people need help this winter

Prophet Muhammad said, “Give charity without delay, for it stands in the way of calamity.”

£100 Winter Emergency Kit could provide a displaced family with the essentials they need to survive this winter, including warm blankets, clothes, heating and fuel.

Freezing temperatures. Heavy rain. Howling winds. Without your help, displaced families could lose their lives this winter. After enduring conflict, disaster, persecution and the threat of COVID-19, millions of displaced families must now endure an unbearable season with no place to call home.

In winter, a perfect storm of inadequate shelter and a lack of warm clothing and nutritious food can make the bitter season deadly for refugees and displaced families. With no means of protecting themselves from the cold and no access to nutritious food, fighting illness becomes impossible. Common colds, flu and COVID-19 can be deadly. Pregnant women, small children, the elderly, and the disabled are especially vulnerable. We must do all we can to protect them.

Help us save lives

This winter, Human Appeal is providing emergency family winter kits for displaced people trying to survive in camps. They contain essential items, such as warm clothing, thermal bedding, fuel for heating, shelter repair kits, and nutritious food to last one whole month. They are a lifeline for those in desperate need.

Thank you for supporting people in desperate need.

Thanks to your support, Human Appeal has been delivering emergency winter aid in the world’s most vulnerable communities for almost 30 years. Last year alone we supported 116,500 people across 7 countries thanks to you.

Vulnerable families need our help this winter more than ever. Your donation can be the difference between life and death.
