ReliefAid

We save lives and alleviate the suffering of people affected by war and armed conflict.

Auckland

ReliefAid saves the lives of people affected by armed conflict and natural disasters through independent and impartial humanitarian action.

We deliver emergency aid to people affected by conflicts around the world. In the countries where we work, we have a team on the ground who deliver humanitarian aid directly to those in need; we know our aid cannot wait.

We currently operate in Gaza, Ukraine, Syria, and Afghanistan delivering life-saving supplies of medicines, food, and shelter and providing educational materials and programmes to children displaced by war.

In addition to direct humanitarian action, we speak out on behalf of the men, women and children whose voices are so often silenced by these conflicts.

ReliefAid needs your help, we cannot do this alone.

Donate today to help us meet the immediate and urgent needs of families who have been left with nothing but fear and uncertainty.

Thank you for your continued support!  19 May 2025

The last few months have been busy! ReliefAid founder Mike Seawright recently returned from visiting our teams and the families we support in Ukraine and Syria.

What he saw was both heart-breaking and deeply motivating to do more.

In Ukraine, Mike joined our team delivering hygiene kits to families living on the frontlines in Mykolaiv region. Despite freezing snow and roads blocked by blizzards, the distributions continued - because families can’t wait. Their lives are shattered, and they are finding it hard to afford the simple basics, but their strength and determination remain.

In Syria, Mike visited our team in Aleppo and Idlib, and distributed food packages to families living in displacement camps. It was Mike's first time returning to Syria since the start of the war, and he noticed that even though the civil war had ended, the need for aid was staggering. Families live in tents. Children go without meals. But hope still exists - in the hearts of the people and in the impact of your support.

And in Gaza, our team continues water distributions despite extreme danger and limited access to aid. Food is scarce, violence continues, and families are asking the world not to forget them. We won’t. Because of you, we’re still there.

As global aid declines and leadership turns away, your continued support is more vital than ever. You are helping us deliver real aid and real hope to those who need it most.

Thank you for your humanity! You're making a real difference.

I have recently retired - my salary contained a regular donation to Relief Aid - deducted by my employer. I will now do this directly. What is happening - particularly in Gaza - is utterly cynical behaviour by the US and Israel. My family condemns this evil and offers this small contribution to assist wherever it is needed in the world.
