The Concern Worldwide Emergency Fund
Help Us Respond When Disaster Strikes
We've seen first-hand that one emergency can have devastating and long-term effects on a community, especially when help is slow to arrive. Concern's Emergency Fund is an always-on approach to collect and deploy funds immediately when a disaster strikes.
There's no such thing as a one-size-fits-all approach to emergency response.
Whether delivering life-saving nutrition to the most vulnerable communities facing hunger, trucking water to drought-affected areas, or helping internally displaced people access psychosocial support across Yemen, Haiti, Ukraine, Türkiye, and Syria, Concern's teams are responding on the ground at a moment's notice. And when a crisis fades from the headlines, and funding dwindles, Concern Worldwide's Emergency Fund becomes the lifeline for communities who need it most.
Thanks to donors like you, we responded to 76 emergencies in 23 countries in 2022, reaching 16.4 million people with lifesaving humanitarian aid. Today, our reach extends to 26 countries.
Your concern saves lives. Because of Concern's Emergency Fund, we stand ready to deliver food, clean water, shelter, medicine, cash transfers, and other assistance to meet the needs of the world's most vulnerable populations. Whether the emergency is a natural disaster or a human-influenced crisis, 100% of donated funds will be dedicated to Concern's lifesaving emergency programs.
