“Syria is the biggest humanitarian and refugee crisis of our time, a continuing cause of suffering for millions which should be garnering a groundswell of support around the world.”
Filippo Grandi, UN High Commissioner for Refugees

What is UNHCR doing to help?

In early 2016, with Syria’s war heading into its sixth year and with no end to the fighting in sight, we joined forces with other United Nations humanitarian and development agencies to appeal for USD 7.73 billion in vital new funding to help 22.5 million people in Syria and across the region.

We provide life-saving humanitarian aid for Syrian refugees, helping the most vulnerable with cash for medicine and food, stoves and fuel for heating, insulation for tents, thermal blankets and winter clothing. 

You can help to make a difference!
