Restoring dignity, one family at a time.
Through the distribution of Non-Food Items (NFIs), AIRD is supporting refugee families with essential household supplies that help them meet their daily needs, improve living conditions, and rebuild a sense of normalcy.
Access to basic items such as blankets, kitchen sets, and hygiene materials goes beyond immediate relief; it promotes dignity, safety, and well-being for vulnerable communities.
Together, we continue to stand with refugees as they work toward resilience and a brighter future.

Behind every number is a family separated, a child displaced, a life turned upside down. This is more than a statistic, it is a humanitarian crisis that demands our attention, compassion, and action.

It's because of war.
It's because of violence.
It's because of persecution.
It’s a heartbreaking decision that 41.6 million people have made to flee across borders to find safety.

For years, 72-year-old Nguruka Jafari carried one dream in his heart: to see his homeland again.
A widower, a father, and a refugee, he never stopped hoping for the day he could return to the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Today, as he begins his journey home, his words say it all: “To see my country again is to find my roots.”
After a long wait, hope is finally leading him home, thanks to AIRD.
