Help us respond faster to emergencies as they happen

With your support, we can respond more effectively to humanitarian needs.

  • Help us respond faster to emergencies as they happen

  • Create new opportunities to expand and improve our programmes

  • Enable us to leverage public funding at scale

  • Deliver financial stability and flexibility

Why we need your support

In the last 10 years, global humanitarian funding needs have quadrupled, largely driven by conflict, climate change, pandemics and disease outbreaks. The number of people reached through Concern’s emergency programmes has increased by almost 130%. We need to continue to act and expand our efforts, responding faster to the needs of vulnerable communities worldwide. This is why we have launched the Concern Humanitarian Fund.

Your support to the Concern Humanitarian Fund will allow us to reach more people with life-saving cash, food, shelter and medical care during an emergency, and to provide long-term solutions in the communities we work in. 

Your donation will have a significant impact on those living in extreme poverty.
