Community Fundraising
Fundraising in your community whether it be with your social club, school, workplace or with your friends is fun and rewarding. All donations raised in your community will make a difference. The following is an example of how the funds you raise can help UNHCR to provide the vital items needed by refugees.
$50 can provide plastic sheeting to shelter 5 refugee families in an emergency.
$114 can provide an all-season tent, protecting a family from the hot sun, harsh winds and torrential rain.
$360 can sink a well, providing safe drinking water for a camp of displaced people.
You may wish to donate your funds to a particular appeal which you can find more about here.
