You can help survivors of #HurricaneBeryl, which is cutting a path of death and destruction through the Caribbean and could be headed toward Texas and Louisiana. The storm has already caused multiple deaths and immense damage. It's currently headed toward the Yucatan Peninsula and could reach the US coast after that. With the help of local partners, we’re ready to provide medical relief and support to survivors of this devastating hurricane. Your donation will go directly to helping people affected by the hurricane. Please give what you can today. https://lnkd.in/gFex_3vt

Due to the ongoing conflict in #Sudan, thousands of people have been forced to flee the country. This has caused a large number of #refugees to settle in #Libya, prompting warnings of an impending humanitarian disaster if aid is not urgently provided. Our Libya team sent a rapid response team, consisting of a medical doctor, nurse and field site officer, to Kufra city to assist refugees in the area.

Around the world, there are many obstacles for humanitarian workers. In the Democratic Republic of the Congo (#DRC), rainy weather makes the roads nearly impossible to travel. Despite this, displaced people and other vulnerable people remain in need of assistance. In moments like these, our teams are there to help. In the DRC and beyond, our teams are doing whatever it takes to reach communities in need.
