02 Activities

What the charity does

We raise money from individual and business donations, grants, trusts, and other fundraising activities to buy critical grassroots humanitarian aid and urgent relief services so that refugee men, women and children survive, and build new lives, in Europe. We are trusted to get the right aid to those who need it when they need it via our effective network of on-the-ground volunteer partners.
