Regardless of the disaster or the country affected, the International Red Cross Red Crescent Movement is always there. We show up. We are there when we are needed – supporting communities in the critical hours of the emergency, as they recover, and long after the news headlines fade and the cameras have gone.
Today, you have helped to make sure that those affected by a disaster or crisis will receive urgent, lifesaving relief immediately, as well as continue to support recovery efforts for as long as it’s needed.
THANK YOU!
Right now, there are people in desperate need of life-saving humanitarian assistance – shelter, food and medical aid. In times of disaster and crisis, with your help, there can still be hope for humanity. By donating to the Global Disaster Fund today, you will ensure that, through the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, we can deliver immediate and long-term humanitarian relief to communities in urgent need. Please donate. Your support is needed now more than ever.
Devastating flooding has swept across parts of Asia, affecting Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, and Sri Lanka. Tragically, over 1,000 people have lost their lives, with many still missing. The scale of this disaster is enormous, with people in need of urgent humanitarian assistance – shelter, clean water and access to medical aid.
In the Philippines, multiple typhoons have struck communities, causing widespread flooding and landslides that have forced more than 500,000 people from their homes. These typhoons also struck regions that were still recovering from the devastating September earthquake, a stark reminder that disasters don’t wait for communities to get back on their feet. A Kiwi international delegate is already on the ground in the Philippines, working for the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) alongside local Red Cross teams and meeting with affected people to share their experiences and most pressing needs.
Families affected by these disasters and other crises around the world are in desperate need of support, both now and on their long road to recovery. Red Cross Red Crescent teams on the ground are working to deliver life-saving medical treatment, shelter, water, food and more, and your support is needed today to help ensure that they can reach those who need it most.
