Rohingya emergency: please help

Emergency shelter and core relief items are desperately needed [If you cannot read this email, click here]( [UNHCR Logo]( [Rohingya families need your help]( Rohingya women, children and men fleeing violence are in desperate need of emergency shelter and core relief items. Dear {NAME}, You’ve likely read the tragic stories coming out of Bangladesh these last few days. The Rohingya situation is truly concerning. Over 126,000 Rohingya refugees have been forced to flee to Bangladesh escaping violence in Myanmar since August 2017. Most are women and children. Some have died trying to seek safety. Those who have made it to Bangladesh are in extremely poor conditions. Most have walked for days from their villages – hiding in jungles, crossing mountains and rivers with what they could salvage from their homes. They are hungry, weak and sick. [Please give NOW]( [Please give NOW]( With hundreds of new refugees streaming in every day, Kutupalong and Nayapara refugee camps are at breaking point. As someone who supports the refugee cause, we know you care deeply about people who are forced to flee. So we want you to know that our teams are doing all they can to help. UNHCR is taking the lead in emergency response and assistance to the refugees in the two camps of Kutupalong and Nayapara, in close collaboration with partners and authorities. With hundreds of new refugees streaming in every day, Kutupalong and Nayapara refugee camps are at breaking point. The new arrivals are hosted by refugee families and in refugee schools, community centres, madrassas and covered structures. We are running out of available space. Much more needs to be done to respond to the emergency needs of children, women and men fleeing conflict.
