100 million people have been forcibly displaced—more than at any other time in modern history. That alarming number continues to rise as new and ongoing crises, like the recent violence in Sudan, pose imminent threats to some of the world’s most vulnerable communities.
With nearly 63,000 staff across more than 70 countries, Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is uniquely positioned to provide swift, lifesaving medical and humanitarian aid to people on the move—in cities, towns, displacement camps, and along key migration routes via mobile clinics.

Far from home, but not from care
Dear Friend,
For the first time in modern history, more than 100 million people have been forcibly displaced from their homes. This is equivalent to one percent of the world’s population. On World Refugee Day, this June 20, we’re calling attention to the millions of forcibly displaced people who are facing these enormous challenges.
Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is on the ground in more than 70 countries serving patients who are often far from home. Our teams work in displacement camps and along key migration routes, providing comprehensive and free medical and psychological care to people on the move. But our work doesn’t stop there.
People make the difficult decision to flee their homes and leave with only what they can carry for many reasons. Whether they’re escaping violence or seeking a safer future for their families, MSF is there to provide the care they need—and right now there are over 100 million reasons for you to give in support of this work.
MSF supporters only need one reason to make a gift: because we believe that everyone, everywhere, deserves access to lifesaving care.
Thank you,
Avril Benoît
