Saving Young Lives Amid Growing Uncertainty

In Cox’s Bazar, nearly 1.2 million Rohingya refugees depend entirely on humanitarian aid to survive. But with severe funding cuts, critical nutrition services are on the brink of collapse. Five Integrated Nutrition Facilities — lifelines for malnourished children and mothers — are struggling to keep their doors open. Without support, families risk worsening hunger, preventable illness, and loss of life.

Your monthly support can help keep families fed, provide clean water, and deliver essential medicines around the world. 

Eight years after more than 700,000 Rohingya fled to Bangladesh in 2017, the humanitarian situation in Cox’s Bazar has reached a critical point.
