MEETING THE MOST IMMEDIATE AND VITAL NEEDS
Since 2016, our dynamic and passionate team has responded to the ongoing refugee crisis by meeting the most immediate and vital needs of millions of refugees. With minimal overhead and an army of volunteers, we fill gaps and rapidly adapt to conditions on the ground in ways larger organizations often can’t. Simply humanitarian.
As the war in Ukraine escalates and international aid dwindles, more people than ever are targeted by destruction, violence, and occupation. Nowhere is safe. Our teams risk their lives to keep other people alive. Donate today to continue our life-saving efforts in Ukraine.
ANIMAL TRACKS
Gather For Goats is now Animal Tracks! We’re excited to announce the expansion of our livestock program to include more animals, for more refugee populations, in more parts of the world!
Two million people live in Gaza. Almost half of them are children. Heeding warnings to flee to the south, 1.9 million people have been displaced from their homes. And supply routes have been cut off, and children and families in Gaza are running out of food, water, electricity, and medicine.
An aid corridor has opened through Egypt, and convoys have been able to bring aid into Gaza, but it is nowhere near enough to meet the need. LHI is responding with food, water, medicine, and psychological first aid.
UTAH
We're providing critical support for refugees at home in Utah and around the world. Your support powers aid shipments to communities affected by crisis, cares for refugee expectant mothers with supplies and guidance, and gives newly resettled refugee families a warm welcome to Utah.
GREECE
Located just 100 meters from the refugee camps in Serres, Greece, LHI's Refugee Center supports the camp’s 1,100+ residents. At the Center, daily classes are held on a range of subjects including English, German, and more. There’s a Female-Friendly Space, a Child-Friendly Space, and an Aid Distribution Warehouse that provides dry food, fresh produce, and hygiene supplies. Camp residents also have access to a computer space, and social events are held including movie nights and talent shows featuring dancing and singing.
Sometimes urgent and unforeseen situations arise. Unfortunately for many refugees around the world, it happens all too often. That’s why we started our Greatest Need program—to respond quickly as new needs arise on the ground. Hundreds of refugee families have benefitted from initiatives made possible by our Greatest Need program.
“Getting involved made me love refugees even more! And seeing the out pouring of donations from people helped me see that there are still good people out there!”
