Rohingya Refugee Crisis

$125 of $5,000 goal

Given by 6 generous donors in 8 weeks

Help the Rohingya People and meet their day to day needs - food, clean water, Tarps for the rainy season, and medical attention.

Nationwide

You may no longer see it in the news, but nearly 1 million people are still homeless in refugee camps in Bangladesh - The Rohingya.

The Rohingya are a stateless Muslim minority group who have been subjected to systematic persecution and grave human rights abuses by Myanmar authorities for decades. Over 100,000 lived in internally displaced persons camps in Rakhine State with no freedom of movement or access to food, water, sanitation, healthcare and education.

Escalating violence in September 2017 forced an additional 700,000 to flee to Bangladesh, leaving them in an extremely vulnerable state. Partners has been working alongside their communities since 2012 and is uniquely positioned to partner with you in responding to this crisis.

About us

Partners is a relief and development organisation that helps wherever there is conflict or oppression in the world.

Use of funds

The use of funds will be applied to project work run by Partners Relief and Development in the Bangladesh refugee camps. Any surplus raised will still go to the Rohingya people group, or alternatively other displaced people groups in Myanmar.

On average, fundraisers pay just 2% to use Givealittle. This is one of the lowest effective fees in New Zealand fundraising. We charge a 5% platform fee to cover the cost of running the platform. Because most donors choose to top up their donation to cover this fee, the effective cost paid by fundraisers is about 2%. That means around 98 cents of every dollar raised goes to the cause.
