Help People Facing Disasters + the Health Workers Caring for Them

Dear Friend,

I’m Dr. Vlatko Uzevski, Project HOPE’s Regional Manager in the Balkans. I helped care for earthquake survivors of February’s earthquakes in Gaziantep, Turkey. Because of supporters like you, Project HOPE can be on the ground within hours of a disaster like the earthquakes, stay as long as people need us, and rebuild healthcare.

Still the suffering and needs remain high in Turkey and other communities in crisis like Ukraine. But you can help save lives and care for disaster survivors as they navigate the darkest times of their lives. Through 5/31, thanks to the 2023 HOPE and Health Matching Gift Challenge, every $1 you donate equals $2. Please give as much as you are called and able to contribute.

Even though the headlines about Turkey’s earthquakes have faded, Project HOPE continues to support local communities so they can build back stronger — repairing clinics, providing housing for health workers and rebuilding supply chains. Your gift, which matching funds will double, makes these emergency response and long-term programs possible. Your generosity now helps us be ready for whatever comes next.

Every minute makes a life-or-death difference.

My fellow Project HOPE emergency team members and health workers are counting on your support as they save lives in communities in crisis like:

>> Ukraine and surrounding countries. People who’ve endured the trauma of war for more than a year need medicines, generators, water, hygiene kits and mental health support. Donate >>

>> Colombia. Health care workers are in desperate need in Colombia, as it struggles to care for nearly 2 million Venezuelan refugees and migrants, many of whom are pregnant women. Donate >>

>> Haiti. Ongoing violent conflict, earthquakes and instability mean millions of families are facing deadly threats like food insecurity and the resurgence of cholera. Donate >>

While there are still matching funds available to double the power of your contribution, I call on you to please support this lifesaving work with a compassionate gift.

I know that I speak for my entire team when I offer you my sincere thanks. No matter the crisis, we’re stronger because you’re with us.
