Personal Delivery of Funds to Help Rohingya Refugees!


Help Bring Relief to the Rohingya Refugees!

Thousands of Rohingya Muslims have become refugees, fleeing the genocide and violence in Myanmar that has targeted them. Countless refugees have made their way into Bangladesh in search of help, only to be stranded at the borders without food, water, and other basic supplies. I plan to travel to the Bangladesh/Myanmar border to help provide aid and relief to these refugees. All proceeds raised will go towards the purchase of supplies, including food, for the stranded men, women, and children.

Your Donation Goes a Long Way!

I have personally seen the impact your donations can make, physically and emotionally, to those who feel hopeless. In my previous trips, your donations have brought thousands of refugees food, clothing, shelter, medications, etc. Know that every donation can truly make a difference! 
Having graduated with a B.A. in International Criminal Justice with concentration on human rights and  refugees, I soon after traveled to Jordan, France, and to the island of Lesvos and to the northern region of Greece, as well as India. I have done humanitarian and basic medical relief work in over 15 camps, clinics, and centers. One of the most important lessons my time on the field has taught me is the power of the human connection, and the importance of being able to connect on an intimate level with those who are suffering, while at the same time being able to personally deliver the donations to where it is needed most.




Where are They Going? 
Reports indicate that about 500,000 Rohingya Muslims are registered in two camps and smaller settlements in the Cox's Bazaar area. In the past several weeks, Bangladesh has seen an influx of refugees crossing the border from Myanmar, as hundreds of thousands are trying to escape the persecution they face in the Rakhine region of Myanmar.

Why Donate?

The Rohingya people have suffered unimaginable pain and suffering. In their search for a safe life, they have lost what little they had and are now struggling to survive. Every penny donated will go toward the purchase of basic food staples, such as rice, and other necessities that will be dependent on the needs of the individual/family.
