Displacement and conflict have struck Afghanistan into crisis. Thousands of families are currently at risk, with the threat of nationwide poverty looming. According to UNDP representatives, 97% of Afghans could plunge into poverty by mid-2022. As per the UN analysis, we are simply counting down to catastrophe.

More than 600,000 Afghans have been displaced this year, 80 per cent of which are women and children. The only shelter available to some is a tent, with no adequate protection, all of which is about to worsen in the coming winter months. The elderly who have no way of income and self-sustenance have no means of acquiring food, water, and a warm roof over their heads.

The people of Afghanistan have been failed time and time again, we cannot be of those who turn a blind eye to the chaos. As a community we must take action, help and support those with nowhere to turn. The winter months are relentless and will not take mercy upon its victims.

How are we helping?

Temperatures will reach below freezing this winter. As part of our winter campaign, Noor Orphans Fund will be providing Afghan refugees situated within camps in Quetta, Pakistan, with winter necessities, such as blankets, socks and shawls. With your help, we aim to provide support to 500 Afghan refugees.

We urge you to donate to this campaign and support our efforts in the coming months. From only £25 you can provide one person with a winter bundle, this includes a blanket, socks and a shawl. No matter the amount, your donations will make a huge impact on the survival of Afghan refugees this winter.

Be part of the change and the drive towards global poverty relief, help save a life today.
