Middle East Humanitarian Appeal
Millions across the Middle East have fled their homes in search of safety. They urgently need shelter, food and basic supplies.
We can get there, and we do. In a world where crises can strike without warning, we are uniquely positioned to provide immediate aid to those in desperate need, thanks to your support.
As part of Caritas, a global confederation of Catholic organisations dedicated to ending poverty and promoting justice, we harness the strength of our extensive church network to reach communities worldwide.
Our reach extends across borders and barriers, allowing us to act swiftly in times of crisis, whether it's natural disasters, conflicts, or humanitarian emergencies, which, in many cases, impacts the development work we are also involved in.
With your generosity, we transform lives by:
Delivering urgent relief: We provide food, clean water, shelter, and medical care to people affected by disasters. Every moment counts, and with your support, we can be on the ground within hours, ensuring vital resources reach the most vulnerable.
Empowering communities: Beyond immediate relief, we work to build resilient communities. Through education, vocational training, and sustainable development projects, we help individuals regain their independence and dignity.
Advocating for justice: CAFOD stands as a voice for the voiceless. We advocate for policies that promote social justice, protect human rights, and more.
