A Global Crisis, a Shared Response
Nearly 38 million people across the globe have fled as refugees to another country in search of safety. This World Refugee Awareness Day, will you extend your hand to help?
Today, more people than ever in recorded history have been forced to flee for their lives to another country or community — over 40% of them children. At World Relief, we serve these displaced families in countries across the world, including in the U.S.
Due to the unexpected termination of our agreement to resettle refugees and pause on foreign assistance funds for life-saving work, we now face a critical gap in supporting millions of families both here in the U.S. and in fragile countries around the world. Lives are at risk. We urgently need your support to provide necessities — including food, shelter, medical care and more to families in crisis.
Your generosity is now critical in our ability to provide for these basic needs and life-saving services.
Make your gift monthly and sustain this vital work all year-long

Urge President Trump to uphold his commitment to protecting persecuted Christians and for his administration to sustain the refugee resettlement program.
Seeing what World Relief was doing, I thought — thank God something is happening. There is still goodness in the world. World Relief is changing lives.

I don’t know what we would have done without [our caseworker]. Before we got to World Relief, it felt like no one cared.
