Refugee Crisis In Europe
Hundreds of thousands of desperate families have fled war and conflict and made the perilous journey by boat to Europe.
We urgently need your support to provide these families with life-saving assistance and improve their living conditions.
“I am breathing finally… We almost drowned in the sea from Turkey to Greece.”
Aya, Syrian refugee in Munich
Over 1.2 million people have landed on the shores of Europe since the beginning of 2015. Many millions more are barely scraping by in the countries neighbouring Syria.
With borders now closed, those who clung to life in the sinking dinghies find themselves in Greece unsure of their fate and struggling to survive in deteriorating, sometimes appalling conditions.
UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, has been protecting refugees and providing essential support since day one of the emergency but the needs in Europe and the Middle East have stretched our resources to capacity.
You can help us reach more people in dire need of our assistance. Please make an emergency donation today.
