This is an email series highlighting the risks that refugees and internally displaced people are facing as a result of recent funding cuts

Dear John,

In the midst of the ongoing funding crisis, women and girls displaced by conflict are facing the most devastating consequences. The cuts to humanitarian aid are putting them at an even greater risk, leaving them vulnerable to violence, exploitation, and abuse.

Across conflict zones, from South Sudan to Yemen and Syria, the impact of funding cuts is devastating. In South Sudan, only 25% of protection spaces for women and girls remain operational, leaving tens of thousands without access to critical services like emergency psychosocial support, legal aid, and medical care.

Similarly, in Yemen and Syria, vital programs are being suspended, leaving countless women and girls exposed to exploitation and abuse. These cuts also threaten their access to basic needs, such as clean water, food, and healthcare.

 
 

On International Workers’ Day, we recognize the unwavering dedication of UNHCR staff working on the front lines of crisis. These humanitarian workers continue to deliver essential support to those who need it most.

In refugee camps, our teams are distributing critical items, including blankets, sleeping mats, and other emergency essentials to refugee women and girls. These items, while simple, offer safety, comfort, and a sense of dignity in uncertain times.

Let’s honor their work by ensuring they have the tools and funding to keep going.

 
 

Refugee women and girls need your support to have access to these vital services.

Your donation today can help protect those most at risk, ensuring they receive the care and support they desperately need.

Please donate now to help us continue this life-saving work. Every day without funding means more lives are at risk.

Thank you for standing with us.
