YOUR DONATION PROVIDES LIFE-SAVING HEALTHCARE FOR PEOPLE IN EMERGENCIES



YOUR SUPPORT WILL HELP SAVE MILLIONS OF LIVES AND FUEL HOPE.


SUPPORT THE MOST VULNERABLE

 

EVERY HUMANITARIAN CRISIS IS A HEALTH CRISIS. IN AN EMERGENCY, PEOPLE ARE AT
INCREASED RISK OF DEATH, SEVERE INJURY, TRAUMA AND DISEASE OUTBREAKS; RAPID
ACCESS TO HEALTH-CARE SERVICES CAN BE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LIFE AND DEATH.

 

Your support today means the WHO can increase the number of vaccines delivered
to priority countries; provide access to lifesaving supplies, health services to
millions of women and children in humanitarian settings, support WHO in
educating and employing millions of health workers; and help countries or
eliminate malaria, mother-to-child HIV transmission and other diseases.

In the heart of crisis, conflict, natural disasters and polarized worldviews, we
see stories of resilience and hope. We see people come together to face
adversity and divisiveness, through shared values of solidarity and empathy.

Your support empowers the WHO to deliver life-saving aid, bring comfort to the
suffering, and rebuild shattered lives.

WHO IS STAYING AND DELIVERING IN EMERGENCIES

 

WHO’S TEAMS ARE ON THE GROUND IN THE OCCUPIED PALESTINIAN TERRITORIES, REACHING
OVER 350,000 PEOPLE A WEEK THROUGH A NETWORK OF PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS DELIVERING
THOUSANDS OF TONNES HEALTH SUPPLIES. IN LEBANON, WHERE THE CURRENT ESCALATION OF
CONFLICT HAS DISPLACED OVER 1 MILLION PEOPLE, MOST OF WHOM ARE WOMEN, CHILDREN
AND ELDERLY, WHO HAS MOBILIZED SUPPLIES FOR 100,000 PEOPLE; IS COORDINATING THE
DISPATCH OF EMERGENCY MEDICAL TEAMS; AND IS TRAINING SURGEONS TO TREAT
TRAUMA-RELATED INJURIES.

 

In Sudan where the humanitarian situation remains critical, WHO emergency health
supplies for 3.5 million people, including life-saving nutritional aid for those
suffering the complications of severe malnutrition. In the absence of
functioning health services, WHO’s vaccine drives are protecting millions of
children against measles, rubella and cholera.

Since the mpox disease outbreak on the African continent has been declared a
public health emergency of international concern, the WHO has issued an
emergency approval for the first ever vaccine against the disease in September.
Since then more than 19,000 people have been vaccinated in the Democratic
Republic of Congo (DRC) alone. Through expert guidance, training, and access to
diagnostics, WHO’s emergency coordination units are working tirelessly to help
countries to contain the outbreaks and to prevent further global spread of the
disease.

Your support today means that the critically ill can get treatment and access to
lifesaving supplies.

SUPPORT WHO’S WORK IN EMERGENCIES


HELP THE PEOPLE OF GAZA AND LEBANON

 

SINCE 7 OCTOBER 2023, THE ESCALATING CRISIS IN THE OCCUPIED PALESTINIAN
TERRITORY HAS CAUSED LARGE NUMBERS OF CIVILIAN DEATHS AND INJURIES.

 

In the Gaza Strip, the lack of medical supplies, food, water and fuel have
virtually depleted an already under-resourced health system. Hospitals have been
operating far beyond capacity due to rising numbers of patients as well as
displaced civilians seeking shelter. The provision of essential health services
– from maternal and newborn care to treatment for chronic conditions – has been
severely compromised, due to the lack of access and hostilities near hospitals.

The situation has also rapidly escalated in Lebanon, where the death toll is
rising, more than 1 million people have been displaced and hospitals are
overwhelmed with the influx of injured patients.

Your support will help the WHO provide essential trauma emergency supply kits,
Non Communicable Disease, Severe Acute Malnutrition and Paediatric kits, in
addition to critical medications and supplies that are needed to reach the most
vulnerable, most of whom are women and children.

The WHO continue to support patient transfers, deploying emergency medical teams
and field hospitals, deliverable medical suppliers to health facilities and
bringing mental health services in a coordinated response. The needs are immense
and the WHO cannot do it alone. 

Help us support this extensive response to
ongoing crisis in Gaza and Lebanon.

Take action.

HELP THE PEOPLE OF UKRAINE

 

IN UKRAINE, 14.6 MILLION PEOPLE ARE IN NEED OF HUMANITARIAN ASSISTANCE, OF WHICH
7.8 MILLION PEOPLE ARE IN NEED OF HEALTH ASSISTANCE. 9.6 MILLION PEOPLE IN
UKRAINE ARE ESTIMATED TO BE AT RISK OF OR LIVING WITH A MENTAL HEALTH CONDITION,
AND 84% OF ALL DEATHS ARE CAUSED BY NONCOMMUNICABLE DISEASES (NCDS).

 

The WHO is delivering specialized medical supplies, coordinating the deployment
of medical teams and providing much-needed support on urgent health needs,
mental health, rehabilitation. In 2023 alone, the WHO has supported 7 million
and delivered more than 2000 metric tonnes of essential medical and lifesaving
supplies.

It is imperative to ensure that life-saving medical supplies – including oxygen
– reach those who need them. WHO is coordinating nearly 200 health partners to
deliver various health services across the country, reaching millions
prioritizing the needs of the most vulnerable, including individuals in remote
areas and on the frontlines, and addressing the compounded difficulties brought
on by the winter and energy crisis.

Your support today means that the WHO can continue to provide life-saving trauma
and emergency health care to the most vulnerable populations and communities
affected by the war.

Take Action.

HELP THE PEOPLE OF SUDAN

 

THE WAR THAT HAS BEEN RAGING IN SUDAN FOR OVER EIGHT MONTHS HAS HAD A
DEVASTATING IMPACT ON THE LIVES, LIVELIHOODS, AND HEALTH OF MILLIONS OF PEOPLE.
A HEALTH SYSTEM ALREADY STRUGGLING DUE TO STRUCTURAL WEAKNESSES, VIOLENCE,
DISEASE OUTBREAKS, AND HUNGER IS NOW BUCKLING UNDER THE ENORMOUS PRESSURE CAUSED
BY THE WAR AND THE HUGE POPULATION DISPLACEMENTS IT HAS CAUSED.

 

The health of 14.7 million people hangs in the balance in the face of mass
displacement, injuries, hunger and floods. Sudan is also facing outbreaks of
measles, malaria, dengue fever, cholera, and other water- and vector-borne and
vaccine preventable diseases, compounded by the health risks associated with
seasonal rains, poor water quality, poor hygiene and waste management.

More than 3.1 million people are estimated to be at risk of cholera in Sudan
between July and December 2023. About 70% of hospitals in conflict-affected
states are non-functional, while functioning hospitals and clinics in more
stable states are overwhelmed.

WHO is targeting 14.7 million people for health assistance distributing
emergency medical supplies, including Interagency Emergency Health Kits (IEHKs),
trauma kits, cholera kits, non-communicable disease kits, and kits for the
management of severe acute malnutrition in priority areas of the country. 


With your support the WHO can continue to improve shelter conditions, nutrition,
and water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) practices. The WHO can continue to
support treatment centres and invest in diagnostic testing, vaccination
campaigns, mass drug administration, and vector control measures to fight
disease outbreaks.

Take Action. Stand with humanity today.
