As COVID-19 spreads, we are working with Helping Hand to provide Rohingya refugees with basic necessities and essential healthcare supplies.


Students4Rohingya in partnership with HHRD

Note: This campaign has ended, but we are still continuing to raise funds with Helping Hand for Relief and Development. Check out our new fundraiser here!

The Rohingya refugee camps are the densest refugee camps in the world. Last month, two Rohingya refugees were the first positive COVID-19 cases in the camp. Now, there are almost forty cases, with the first two deaths reported a few days ago. With almost a million people residing in these camps, COVID-19 can have a devastating impact. 

The camps lack the resources needed to prevent the spread of this deadly virus. The density of the population does not allow them to maintain social distancing measures. These camps lack basic necessities such as soap, water, and masks, making hygienic procedures to contain the spread very difficult. Funds are also needed to sanitize facilities and educate Rohingya on how to prevent the spread of the virus. Now, more than ever, aid is needed to provide these resources to the Rohingya refugee camps. 

Violence, starvation, and HIV are a few of the countless atrocities the Rohingya already face. Currently, hundreds and thousands of Rohingya are in need of shelter, food, supplies, and medical aid. Now, with the onset of COVID-19, we cannot stand by and watch our Rohingya brothers and sisters suffer without attempting to help.


Help us combat COVID-19 in refugee camps by providing shelters, washrooms, water and sanitation supplies, hygiene kits, feminine hygiene, healthcare, and medical supplies for clinics! 

All donations are Zakat-eligible and tax-deductible. Helping Hand for Relief and Development is a Registered 501(c)(3), Tax ID 31-1628040.
