Current Relief Efforts
Türkiye and Syria Earthquake Response
On the morning of 6 February 2023, a 7.8 magnitude earthquake hit a wide area in South-eastern Türkiye and Northern Syria. World Vision is already responding – providing aid to the most vulnerable children and families. Your contribution will help meet the needs of people devastated by the disaster and care for children whose families aren’t able to amid this crisis.
Ukraine Crisis Response
As the conflict in Ukraine rages, World Vision is mobilising in the region to provide emergency supplies and assistance for children and families who are fleeing violence. Your contribution will help meet the needs of people fleeing the violent conflict in Ukraine. This includes emergency assistance packages, as well as psychosocial and educational support for children and families, including child-friendly spaces. If sufficient funding has been raised for this appeal, your donation will be channelled to the next most urgent response.
Afghanistan Appeal
With decades of war, displacement and now a sudden change of rule compounded by COVID-19 and the massive food insecurity, children and families in Afghanistan are at breaking point. But World Vision is on the ground and we are committed to stay. We aim to meet urgent food, water, sanitation, healthcare and protection needs.
Myanmar-Bangladesh Refugee Crisis
Over 500,000 people have fled to Bangladesh after violence erupted in Myanmar’s Rakhine State on 25 August 2017. Many of these refugees are going without food, clean water, healthcare and other necessities. World Vision is on the ground in Bangladesh to distribute emergency food and relief supplies to assist refugees during this difficult situation.
Syria Crisis Response
The conflict in Syria has dragged on for ten years, turning the country into one of the most dangerous places in the world to be a child. Since the start of the conflict, World Vision has been on the front lines, working in Syria and among refugee communities in Lebanon, Jordan, Turkey and Iraq to bring aid to those that have been affected.
Yemen Crisis
The Yemen war, now the world’s largest humanitarian crisis, has left 24 million people or 80% of the country’s population in need of aid. More than half of them are children. In addition to horrific violence, people are suffering from hunger and deprivation. World Vision is working to improve healthcare access and reduce acute malnutrition among children and pregnant and lactating women.
