There are lots of ways that you can help UNHCR - directly and indirectly. One obvious way is to make a donation, which will go straight to helping our field operations around the world. Other ways to support UNHCR's work include holding awareness and fundraising events in your communities, marking World Refugee Day, keeping up to date on our activities and joining in an online dialogue on popular social networking sites about our work and those we help.
