Approximately 900,000 Rohingya children, women and men have been forced to flee to Bangladesh — with more than 700,000 escaping violence in Myanmar since August 25, 2017.
They arrived exhausted, hungry and sick after walking for days from their villages through jungles, across mountains and rivers carrying what little they can bring from home. There is an urgent need for emergency shelters and core relief items.
The UN Refugee Agency is on the ground in Bangladesh providing lifesaving aid to Rohingya refugees, but resources are stretched thin. You can help rush critical aid including food, clean water, medicine and tents to desperate Rohingya children and families.
