Four decades of conflict in Afghanistan have left 23.7 million people in need of humanitarian assistance. A staggering 12.6 million of them are children.
Children face acute physical danger from mines and unexploded devices. High unemployment and rising prices mean households struggle to survive, with hunger and malnutrition widespread. The public healthcare system has collapsed and access to other basic services is extremely limited. The 2023 earthquakes in Herat and the subsequent drought have further intensified the urgent need for aid.
Children and families of Afghanistan urgently need your support and basic essentials. Your help means that we can provide children with food, a safe space, hygiene kits and psychological first aid.
Donate today and help us continue our life-saving work in Afghanistan and in war zones all around the world.
Years of conflict, severe drought, and the impacts of COVID-19 have pushed many families in Afghanistan into poverty. With no other means of survival, they are being forced to make difficult decisions such as sending their children across the border to Iran in search of work.
War Child UK is the only specialist charity for children affected by conflict. For 30 years, we've been driven by a single goal - for no child's life to be torn apart by war. Regular monthly gifts are essential for ensuring we can be there for children living through conflict, both now and into the future Your support means we can provide life-saving aid when conflict breaks out, and stay to support children through their recovery - keeping them safe, helping them learn and cope with their experiences, and equipping them with skills for the future. You can help us be there for children who need us most, when they need us most. Your donations will be used to fund our life-saving work in Afghanistan, the Central African Republic, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Iraq, Ukraine and Yemen.
We're here to help. If you have any questions about the ways you can give, you can contact us by phoning us on +44 (0)20 7112 2555 or by sending an email to [email protected].
