protect children
in Afghanistan
Afghanistan was already one of the toughest places on earth to be a child. Right now, the situation is desperate.
August marks one year since the Taliban seized power in Afghanistan. Decades of insecurity and conflict has left Afghanistan facing one of the biggest humanitarian crises in the world.
What’s happening in Afghanistan?
You may not have seen as much in the news, but 10 million children across Afghanistan still urgently need humanitarian assistance to survive. Without urgent action, over one million children could be severely malnourished in the coming weeks.
Political instability, an economic crisis, drought, and COVID-19 have collided to create an unprecedented humanitarian emergency. Following the devastating earthquake that hit eastern Afghanistan in June, killing over a thousand people and leaving many more injured, your support is needed more than ever.
Our teams worked around the clock to provide vital first aid in the wake of the disaster. Now, we’re continuing to help support the hundreds of people who have lost their loved ones, homes and livelihoods.
They need protection and assistance now.
We’re delivering essential health supplies in the face of increasingly dangerous disease outbreaks. Diseases such as measles, where there have been over 40,000 cases so far this year.
Alongside our partners, we have reached more than 4 million people with life-saving health services across the country, while 195,574 people had access to safe drinking water. We’re also advocating for the rights of children in Afghanistan, including the right for all children to have an education.
Thanks to the help of supporters like you, we are hoping to provide over 15 million people with access to lifesaving healthcare.
But, we simply don’t have enough funds to reach every child in danger. We need your help to continue to provide essential life-saving supplies to the children who need it the most.
Help us reach every child in danger. Please donate now to protect children in Afghanistan.
