Winter Appeal

22nd November 2021

As temperatures drop around the world, hundreds of thousands of families are desperate for your help.

As the temperatures plummet this winter, hundreds of thousands of families face a daily battle to stay alive without the heating, food, and clothing they desperately need.

Winter generally brings higher expenses, such as heating bills and warm clothes, but for families who already struggle throughout the year, they can’t afford the higher bills. They risk illnesses, and potentially, death.

We are working in Nepal, Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, Lebanon, Gaza, and Bosnia to distribute winter essentials to help them through these bitter months. With your help, we aim to provide families in need with thick quilts and blankets, warm clothing, and heaters.

Helping Those Most in Need This Winter

The people most at risk include refugees, the homeless, the elderly, and vulnerable families who can’t afford winter essentials or don’t have safe homes to protect them from the elements. We are working to help families living in deprived, hard-to-reach communities and provide them with items such as warm clothes, blankets and heaters.

With no defense against the cold, winter weather, the reality is that these vulnerable people could die as they can be trapped from the poor infrastructure caused by adverse weather. To help them during these harsh winter months, we are providing them with thick quilts, blankets, and shawls. We are also providing warm clothes for children so they can still go to school with adequate clothing.
