Dear John, 

As we head into 2022, we wanted to send out our thanks to every single person who gave so generously to help displaced families this winter.

Your support already helped provide lifesaving assistance to thousands of families last year. Over the past few months, UNHCR has been on the ground delivering critical aid and essentials such as thermal blankets, home insulation kits, cooking and heating supplies, solar lamps, and emergency winter cash to families in need. Through your generosity, you have played a vital role in sheltering and protecting refugees and displaced people from the bitter cold.

Whilst your support has helped to reach so many, the winter months are far from over.

Refugees and displaced families aren’t numbers or headlines, but parents, brothers and sisters, cousins, neighbours and friends. People who have loving families and devoted friends — who dream of a safer future. And this winter, so many are being plunged into a desperate situation, where every day is a struggle to survive.

Thank you,

Breno Valentini
International Supporter Care
UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency

P.S. If you have already donated to this appeal, thank you for your kind support. Your gift will help displaced families survive another brutal winter far from home.
