About us
The Refugee Foundation was founded in 1976 to help refugees and displaced persons who are in acute need, anywhere in the world. We provide life-saving assistance to people who are victims of conflict, violence, or natural disasters.
How we work
Aid is increasingly provided by our local partners. In many places, even in the most complex emergency situations in the world, local organisations deliver the most effective and efficient aid. Local partner organizations are often better positioned to provide assistance to people who are difficult to reach. They know the environment, speak the language, understand the needs and can quickly adjust. The Refugee Foundations helps to unlock local potential and deliver aid tailored to local needs and circumstances.
