Afghan children are facing a severe humanitarian crisis. Poverty, limited access to food, and a severely under-resourced health system has left children facing malnutrition and an increased risk of disease outbreaks. These children need your love, care and urgent support to save and transform their lives.
Muhammed Taher, a 40-year-old farmer and his family of eight children, are among the many who received life-saving services from the Afghan Red Crescent. After three of his daughters fell ill, he rushed his family to the nearby mobile health team, Taher said:
“My sick daughters [were] examined by a doctor and received free medication, and my other children were vaccinated… I can’t express how grateful I am to the Afghan Red Crescent for sending a mobile health team to our village. They are providing life-saving help to people like us in remote rural areas, where access to healthcare facilities is so constrained or totally non-existent”
We partner with world class charitable and humanitarian organisations, with proven track records of delivering child-centric programmes that make a significant impact to the lives of children in desperate need.
Some of our appeals are restricted, with the aim to raise funds for specific items or projects. Other appeals support an unrestricted fund within a country of need or in global support of emergencies. The flexibility provided by unrestricted programmatic funds has huge benefits in creating resiliency in the ability of our partner organisations to respond to emergencies, conflicts and humanitarian catastrophes that affect children, wherever they may occur.
We provide donors with quality feedback and regular updates on the impact of our work.
