Helping around the world
The number of people affected by naturaldisasters around the world is risingɠ In 2013 every day an average of 32200 were forced to leave their
homes
ɠ According to the UNHCR there are almost 512 million forcibly
displaced people in the world-that represents more than 10 times
the population of New Zealand
As a result disaster response continues to represent the largest portion
of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Cross Crescent
Societies (IFRC) with assistance to around 30 million people
annually from refugees to victims of natural disasters
The immediate effects include loss of life and damage to property
and infrastructure with the survivors traumatised by the
experience and often left without adequate shelter food water andother necessities to sustain life Rapid action is required to prevent
further loss of life
Why your help isneeded now

as well as provide ongoing programmes in schools and throughout local
communities
