ROHINGYA EMERGENCY APPEAL

Rohingya Crisis Appeal

The Rohingya are a Muslim minority from Myanmar who have endured decades of persecution and violence. In 2017, more than 700,000 Rohingya were forced to flee their homes after horrific attacks, burning villages, and widespread brutality.

We are in 2026, the Rohingya remain stateless, homeless, and trapped in overcrowded refugee camps. Many have lived in the same fragile shelters for nearly a decade, surrounded by poverty, malnutrition, and disease.

They have no land to return to, no citizenship, and no protection.

Their crisis has faded from the headlines, and the world has moved on, leaving them forgotten.


A Forgotten Crisis That Still Needs You

In the last 18 months, the situation has become even more alarming. More Rohingya families have fled towards Bangladesh, escaping renewed dangers, violence, and instability in Myanmar. This sharp increase in new arrivals has placed enormous pressure on already overcrowded camps, where life is already difficult, resources are scarce, and conditions remain extremely fragile.

Every day, Rohingya families struggle for:

  • •Enough food to survive
  • •Clean drinking water
  • •Basic medical care
  • •Warm clothing
  • •Protection from disease
  • •Hygiene supplies
  • •Safe shelter from harsh weather

Children walk barefoot on muddy, flood-prone ground. Elderly refugees live without proper medical support. Entire families are living on heaps of waste and unstable ground, where their health is constantly at risk. With little access to clean water, hygiene facilities, or sanitation, they are susceptible to preventable diseases that continue to spread rapidly through the camps. Without proper medical care, many are falling ill, and far too many are dying from conditions that should never claim a life.


Don't let the Rohingya be forgotten any longer.

Supporting the Rohingya today is standing with an oppressed people in their time of greatest need.

Our Prophet ﷺ said:

“Help your brother, whether he is an oppressor or he is an oppressed one.”

— Sahih al-Bukhari 2444
