£3,775.00Donated So Far
The humanitarian crisis that is unfolding is truly horrific, people are dying in Europe and desperately need medicine, food, clothing and shelter.
We are raising funds to provide emergency aid to refugees being driven from their homes by wars and persecution.
We are supporting a team of doctors and volunteers led by Luke Arwynck, leaving from London on 16th November to the Greek Islands, please donate so they can buy lifesaving medical supplies and aid in Greece.
"I had to pick and choose whom I would save, the mother who is drowning or the children who cannot swim, or the father who is drowning because the whole family is grabbing him. Yesterday we managed to save 242 people in total but more than 50 had died. I saw them die. It was terrible. We are shattered physically and psychologically. And I am ashamed of Europe" Oscar Camps in Lesvos
"we have to pull out the babies, we run in and with all my might I tuck at the people stuck at the bottom, it's no use, I see a small child and pull her arms"
"the children's feet are rotting - you guys have one month and then all these people will be dead" A volunteer on Lesvos
The situation is only going to get worse, families desperate for safety in Europe. Please help us help them.
