Refugees around the world need private donations more than ever, with multiple governments initiating unprecedent cuts to foreign aid. Just a few dollars can make a huge difference for families living in refugee and internally displaced person (IDP) camps, by enabling them to afford food, better shelter, and education for their children.

I will donate the proceeds from this fundraiser to a variety of humanitarian organizations focused on helping displaced people, from Doctors Without Borders to the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights. Helping refugees has become one of my main passions in life after covering humanitarian issues as a journalist and podcast host for several years.
