Natural Disaster

This disaster is a significant blow to the already fragile country and threatens to displace thousands of families from their homes and communities.

Ebola Outbreak

Global Health Emergency

A rapidly spreading Ebola outbreak has been confirmed in Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda, and the World Health Organization has declared it a global health emergency.

World Relief is already on the ground, mobilizing local leaders to spread awareness and prevention measures, as well as providing protective and isolation supplies to stop the spread. Time is of the essence. Your gift can help save lives today. Meet the urgency of the moment.

In Lebanon alone, more than 800,000 were forcibly displaced within one week after conflict reached new levels in early March. That number is rising every day.

Public Policy

In January 2026, federal immigration agents detained dozens of lawfully present refugees in Minnesota, including children. These actions came on the heels of increasingly aggressive enforcement tactics against lawfully present immigrants across the United States. The agents, some dressed in plain clothes, lured refugees out of their homes, where they were transported to holding facilities and then, in many cases, out of the state.
