The recent deadly conflict along the Thailand–Cambodia border has triggered a humanitarian crisis of devastating scale. In just days, hundreds of thousands of Cambodian migrant workers and their families have been forced to flee Thailand in fear and desperation.
Overnight, fires sparked by bomb attacks, tore through six border villages, leaving more than 30,000 people homeless. Among the displaced are countless women and children, now facing an alarming risk of trafficking and exploitation.
For the past 10 days, conditions at the transition centres in Poi Pet and Kamrieng have been deeply strained; marked by overcrowding and critical shortages. Children arrive lost, hungry, and terrified – many separated from their families in the scramble to escape. While a fragile ceasefire was declared on 28 July, tensions remain high and fresh waves of evacuation are expected this week.
However, at this present moment, the scale of displacement has stretched our resources to the limit. Families continue to pour into the centres daily – exhausted, malnourished, and desperate for food, shelter, and safety. Without urgent help, we simply won’t be able to meet the growing need.
Your support can help us deliver life-saving relief and give families the chance to rebuild their lives in the following ways:
- Emergency care packages
- Longer-term support
- Trauma counselling and medical care
- School support and clothing for children
- Livelihood rebuilding through vocational training, job placement, and small business support
One-month supply of food, milk for children, diapers, hygiene kits, and first aid items.
To achieve this, we need to raise $300,000.
With your help, we can reach even more families who are desperate for safety and a fresh start.
Your donation today can save lives and restore dignity to families caught in this crisis. Every minute counts.
