UNHCR | Emergency Afghanistan

Fatima, 34, with her young daughter in front of her house in Sabzi, Bamyan province. A year and a half ago, her husband died of an illness. Since then, she has been weaving carpets to survive. She lives in a small hut with her five children. But her business is not going well, she says. In three months, she can barely earn 45-55USD. She is barely able to buy enough food for her children.
Help Afghan families forced to flee

The people of Afghanistan are in the grip of one of the world’s worst crises.  Now families are struggling to survive after a devastating earthquake flattened entire villages in western Afghanistan. Many have died. Thousands more have lost their homes and livelihoods.  

UNHCR is on the ground responding to rising humanitarian needs. But we need your help to do more.  

This latest disaster comes on top of years of conflict, drought and economic crisis.  

You can help Afghans survive this emergency.  

Many displaced families lack sturdy shelters, basic items such as sleeping mats and blankets, and are in need of cash assistance to buy food and medicine. 

Your donation can provide people with life-saving aid. 

Give today to protect these families who so desperately need your help!
