Families struggle even more in the midst of winter’s plummeting temperatures and harsh weather. They face a struggle to feed themselves, a struggle to keep warm, a struggle to keep safe, and a struggle to survive.

Many are also prone to serious illnesses in these conditions. Children are particularly vulnerable, and as well as falling sick, many are unable to study and go to school.

Adults face an even greater struggle to work, pushing many families further into poverty.

Winter Appeal: Islamic Relief’s programme

In 2022, through your generous support, Islamic Relief were able to deliver winter essentials to over 503,000 people in scores of countries through our Winterisation programme. The support provided included distributing thermal clothing, bedding, blankets, fuel for heating, cash vouchers and food packs.

This winter, more people than ever before are in desperate need. This includes families in dire need in Gaza and Syria, as well as Afghanistan where most families do not know where their next meal is coming from.

Please help vulnerable families survive this season: give generously to our Winter Appeal.
