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.

ReliefAid helps families who are caught in the crossfire of war and have no one else to turn to.
We work directly on the ground where others are unable or unwilling to go in conflict-affected countries, providing life-saving aid.
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.
Kia ora, thank you very much for your generous donation. Your contribution will make an enormous impact, providing health kits, cancer treatment, medical supplies and reconstruction material for families devasted by the conflict in Ukraine. We are very proud of our team in Ukraine who definitely are brave, continuing to travel through harsh conditions to reach those most in need. Thank you for supporting them.
Ngā mihi Jennifer for your generous contribution! ReliefAid can only continue delivering lifesaving aid because of generous donors such as yourself. Thank you.
Kia ora Margaret, thank you for your generosity. Our Wings2Learn programme provides learning materials to children in Bamyan, Afghanistan. Last week we provided a full years worth of stationery to 332 children at a school. Thank you for turning your compassion for Afghanistan into meaningful action.
