Afghanistan Crisis Appeal
Afghanistan is one of dozens of countries enduring an alarming hunger crisis, worsened by drought, increasing displacement, rising food prices, and the COVID-19 pandemic.
Your donation could help us provide lifesaving aid
The hunger crisis is having a devastating impact on women and girls. More than 43 million people in 38 countries around the world are at risk of famine unless they receive immediate lifesaving assistance. CARE has worked in Afghanistan since 1961. We are a trusted provider of humanitarian assistance, with strong relationships in local communities. Today, we work both directly and through local partners.
CARE’s focus is on immediate hunger relief and helping people build longer-term solutions to poverty. With our partners around the world, we are; saving lives now with immediate food supplies, cash vouchers, access to job opportunities, and prevention of life-threatening malnutrition; growing resilience with more efficient farming practices, fertiliser alternatives, and safer food storage to help ensure farmers see a next harvest; and changing systems by working with private sector partners and donors and advocating for governments to prevent repeat crises.
Please give now to CARE Australia’s Global Emergency Fund to provide lifesaving support to families all around the world enduring crises like this.

Donations over $2 are tax deductible. Should the funds raised through an emergency appeal exceed the amount required to meet the immediate and longer term needs of the people in the affected areas, or if there are changes in circumstances beyond CARE’s control which limit its ability to utilise all funds in the affected areas, CARE will direct excess funds to other emergency relief activities in the future. Monthly donations will go to emergency relief and preparedness activities where it is needed most.
