Help UNHCR's Emergency Response in Libya

Tax deductible
Today, we’re calling on compassionate humanitarians like you.

You’ve seen the devastating rains that triggered catastrophic floods across Libya, killing thousands and displacing thousands more. The incredible toll of death and injury increases by the day as rescue efforts continue. But right now, this generous and caring community of refugee supporters has the opportunity to make a huge impact on the lives of those affected by the disaster.

Will you join us today? While this remains a rapidly developing situation, it is already clear that the road to recovery will be long — and displaced families who lost everything urgently need your compassionate support.

Teams from UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, are already on the ground responding with emergency shelter and supplies. UNHCR is working closely with national and international partners to respond to the situation as part of the wider UN response in support of the Government.

Activities planned to support those impacted include the distribution of core relief and non-food items, protection interventions, medical supplies and equipment and shelter support. Your kindness means that UNHCR can continue to provide life-saving assistance to families in Libya.

  • $3 can supply a refugee with two large water containers for desperately needed safe drinking water.
  • $12 can provide a shivering family with a waterproof, rotproof tarp sheet to secure their shelter from the elements.
  • $22 could keep five refugees warm with fleece blankets.
  • $23 can help a mother feed her children with a kitchen cooking set.
  • $54 can provide a family with two solar lamps to brighten these dark days.
  • $114 could provide vulnerable families with a kit of core-relief items including water containers, a tarpaulin, blankets, a cooking set and two solar lamps.

Please don’t hesitate. Every second counts. Any amount helps and your kindness truly makes a difference to those whose homes and livelihoods were washed away.

In the event that UNHCR's response to the Libya floods emergency becomes fully funded, your contribution will go to provide life-saving assistance to people forced to flee by emergencies worldwide.
