Your Impact Around the World
Your 2024 Impact
Thank you so much for helping us respond to the needs of the world in 2024.
As you know, 2024 was a year where families faced ongoing war, unrest and conflict. Alongside our partners, we responded to suffering in the Middle East, Ukraine, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Haiti and Myanmar. We worked to bring food, clean water and shelter to families living in emergency situations.
But, through all this conflict we saw something interesting start to happen. We began working to build peace.
We saw our programs shift from responding to the immediate needs of people in crisis situations to helping communities heal from trauma and supporting them towards resiliency.
For example, when the war in Ukraine first began our focus was on getting as much food and water as possible to families trapped in conflict areas. This year, while continuing to care for people’s basic needs, we also assisted refugees from Ukraine as they settled into new homes and careers in Poland. There, our partners helped parents access childcare while they started new jobs and helped adults and children receive trauma counselling.
In total, we worked with over 300,000 people in 110 locations across 44 countries with programs that make a deep, lasting impact in 2024.
