Hi Friend,

By now you might know that tomorrow is World Refugee Day. After a long year spent mostly inside, it’s hard for me to imagine what it’s like to be one of the 79.5 million people forcibly displaced from their homes. Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is doing everything possible to provide the care they need, but it should come as no surprise that the COVID-19 pandemic has only exacerbated an already desperate global crisis.

We can’t just ignore these dual crises. “It was never an option for us just to drop our regular medical services and focus solely on COVID-19,” said Kate White, emergency medical coordinator on Doctors Without Borders’ COVID-19 task force. “Keeping essential health services available and accessible is vital to prevent losing even more lives, whether from measles, malaria, malnutrition, or complicated pregnancies.”

This work is both critical and urgent. But we need your help to keep this going as the virus continues to spread around the world.

If you’re looking for an opportunity to do the most good, make a gift before June 20 (tomorrow) at MIDNIGHT it will be DOUBLED for refugees and other vital MSF operations worldwide.

Here are a few examples of what your MATCHED gift could provide:

These are just a few examples of how far your gift can go towards responding to the needs of refugees and vulnerable people in more than 70 countries. With your support today, we can continue responding to COVID-19 so people forced from home can get the medical care they deserve. We’ll be present for those most in need of help and care.

Please don’t wait, Friend: Make a gift to MSF before MIDNIGHT tomorrow and your contribution will be DOUBLED.

Thanks for your support,
