HELP ROHINGYA CHILDREN
FLEEING VIOLENCE

Rohingya children and families desperately need our help 

Almost half a million Rohingya refugees have fled violence in Myanmar and crossed the border to Bangladesh in the past few weeks. As a stateless Muslim minority group in Myanmar, they have faced discrimination, violence and extreme poverty for decades.

Most have walked for days, bringing with them harrowing stories of violence. Children are arriving in overcrowded makeshift camps. They are sick, exhausted and in desperate need of food, water and medicine. Many are also clearly traumatised by their experiences.

How will my donation help children?

In Bangladesh, Unicef is providing life-saving food for malnourished children, as well as vaccinating children against deadly diseases. Unicef is supplying more than 400,000 people with safe drinking water and has set up more than 40 child-friendly spaces providing distressed and traumatised children with a safe place to eat, rest, play and receive care.

Unicef is working day and night to meet the needs of over 600,000 Rohingya children at risk in both Bangladesh and Myanmar.

However, resources are running dangerously low and we urgently need your support.
