Dear John,
It’s a nightmare scenario. Malnourished refugees. Crowded tent camps. No sanitation or medical supplies. Few, if any, doctors.
When a COVID-19 outbreak happens in a refugee camp, it could be a death sentence for families who have fled war and violence seeking only a safer future.
That’s why we’ve escalated our lifesaving rapid response efforts for people at risk, like the refugee children pictured above. We’re fighting to make sure human rights are front and center in the COVID-19 response and recovery.
Will you help? Today is Giving Tuesday Now, a special global day of giving to address the unprecedented need caused by the COVID-19 crisis. TODAY ONLY: Your donation will immediately be matched so we can double our impact advocating for the health and safety of refugees.
As part of this special day of giving, we must raise $250,000 to support our lifesaving efforts.
UPDATE: We’re almost halfway to our goal. Will you take part in this special day of global giving so we can meet the immediate and lifesaving needs ahead?
Refugees are terrified. Hotiza, an 85-year-old refugee, told an Amnesty crisis investigator, “I’m very afraid because if the virus arrives here at the camp, no one will be alive. There are so many people living in a very small place.”
John, this could be the breaking point for refugees who have fled brutality in conflict-affected countries like Syria, Yemen and Myanmar. The COVID-19 crisis will have deadly consequences if we don’t advocate for them — right now.
Your support of our lifesaving work will ensure that we can protect refugees from danger. And today, as part of Giving Tuesday Now, your donation can have twice the impact.
Please make an emergency donation. Any amount you can chip in will make a difference — especially when doubled.
Thank you so very much. We truly appreciate your support during this intense time of need.
