Story
Millions of lives are at stake as Covid-19 hits refugee camps and war-torn countries like Yemen, Syria and South Sudan. I'm fundraising for the DEC to allow them to help families who have lost everything as they face a deadly new threat.
Your donation of:
£10 could provide 20 bars of handwashing soap to help prevent the spread of the virus in a refugee camp
£30 could provide six displaced families with enough soap for a month, to keep themselves clean and safe
£50 could provide essential hygiene kits to two displaced families
£100 could provide PPE for one frontline health worker for four months
Thank you for your support.
