Find out what Ukrainians need to survive winter and what the IRC is doing to help.

The continuing war in Ukraine is causing extreme civilian harm, as millions of people have been forced to leave their homes and find shelter in neighbouring or further countries. Poland is one of the countries hosting the largest number of refugees from Ukraine. The IRC has worked in Poland since February 2022 to provide vital support to those affected by the conflict, so they can return home when it is safe, not because they have to.

In 2010, the IRC responded to an earthquake in Haiti that left ovor 2 million homeless. We're ready to support partners responding to the Aug 14, 2021 quake.

An intense war in Ukraine has created mass displacement and is fueling a humanitarian crisis unlike any in Europe since World War II.
