Emergency Appeal

The conflict in Afghanistan is escalating rapidly, forcing hundreds of thousands of people to flee, leaving them displaced and in need of urgent support.

According to the International Rescue Committee, over 3 million Afghans are internally displaced and over 18 million people in the country are in need of humanitarian aid.

WF-AID and Imam Hasan Foundation are partnering with the International Rescue Committee (IRC), to provide life-changing humanitarian aid to as many people as possible.

Our aid will be delivered in the following ways:

1. Access to Critical Information – a signposting project which enables the flow of accurate, accessible, and timely information for people in times of crisis.
2. Rapid Impact Cash Assistance – supporting families to buy essential goods and pay for services.
3. Health Services – supporting district-level clinics, mobile health clinics as primary health care has been cut off from various forms of support.
4. Education and Normalcy for Children – tens of thousands of children are internally displaced, missing out on education. We are working with IRC to provide safe, healing, and learning spaces for children who are internally displaced and missing out on education. This will bring regularity to children who have experienced trauma.

We are also in very close contact with the office of His Eminence, Ayatullah Ishaaq Fayyaz, where we further monitor the situation on the ground.

We are calling on you to help those in need in Afghanistan.

Donate today and help provide emergency help to Afghans in their hour of need.

WF-AID actively responds to emergencies around the world.

We have teams and partners on the ground who are best placed to respond to emergency humanitarian situations that arise from disease, famine, natural disaster or violence.

Working around the clock, across the world, we can make sure your donations reach those deserving.

Your donations have already helped provide emergency food, medical, and shelter for countless people.

In Yemen, through your donations, we helped with the resettlement of displaced families and in Gaza, we gave food and medical aid to those affected by conflict.

We responded to natural disasters, including floods in Pakistan and India, where we were able to provide new homes and financial aid. Following the tragic fire in Grenfell, London, we also provided immediate volunteer and food distribution to help some of the families who survived their tower block being engulfed in flames.

We’ve been supporting Rohingya Muslims, who the UN describes as the World’s most persecuted community, and recently were able to provide food and emergency aid in Myanmar. Plans are also in place to do more to support families who have been driven out of their homes following the extreme violence.

The Syria war has now been going on for 6 years and WF-AID has been responding to the needs of refugees in neighbouring countries with food aid, medical treatment (including mental health programmes), shelter and education assistance.

Please keep supporting our Emergency Appeal so we can continue to respond where most needed.

Donations to our Emergency Appeal will be used to respond to any emergency situation which may arise. Any additional donations to this appeal will be retained for use in emergency situations.
