Facing coordinated, systematic, and brutal military attacks, hundreds of thousands of Rohingya families fled into Bangladesh. The Kutupalong settlement in Cox\u2019s Bazar formed almost overnight.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.unhcr.org\/news\/briefing\/2018\/8\/5b7fc7174\/rohingya-emergency-year-asias-recent-refugee-crisis-warrants-international.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">It is now the the largest and most densely populated refugee camp in the world<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Hardship and uncertainty is a daily reality for the Rohingya who now find themselves in an unfamiliar country, in crowded and risky conditions. The monsoon season in Bangladesh is now in full swing, which has made living conditions in the Kutupalong settlement and adjacent camps all the more treacherous. The risk for cholera and other infectious disease outbreaks is high in the camps, where <a href=\"https:\/\/www.voanews.com\/a\/toilet-shortage-and-dirty-water-threat-to-rohingya-camps\/4063737.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">there is a shortage of toilets and safe drinking water<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>More than 1,300 GlobalGiving donors have answered the call to help Rohingya refugees over the last year, making it possible for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globalgiving.org\/disasters\/?rf=learn_feature\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Disaster Recovery Team at GlobalGiving<\/a> to be a reliable partner to community-led nonprofits addressing some of the most urgent needs in and around Cox\u2019s Bazar.<\/p>\n<p>So far, we\u2019ve awarded eight grants totaling $225,000 to six vetted, high-impact nonprofits that are serving Rohingya refugees. As the political leaders of Bangladesh and Myanmar struggle to arrange for the safe, secure, and dignified return of the Rohingya people to their country, GlobalGiving and its partners remain committed to working hand in hand with Rohingya people for a better life.<\/p>\n<h5>Here is a closer look at how your donations to the Rohingya Refugee Relief Fund are making a difference:<\/h5>\n<p><\/p>\n<h4>Protecting mothers and children<\/h4>\n<p>Dr. Iftikher Mahmood was born and raised in Cox\u2019s Bazar. And he\u2019s now determined to help Rohingya mothers and children stay healthy. His nonprofit, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globalgiving.org\/projects\/medical-care-services-to-the-rohingya-refugees\/?rf=learn\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">HOPE Foundation for Women &amp; Children of Bangladesh<\/a>, operates a hospital, health centers, and a small fleet of ambulances in Cox\u2019s Bazar. When Rohingya refugees were pushed from their homes into refugee camps, it was a natural fit for the organization to provide lifesaving maternal care in the Kutupalong settlement and nearby areas.<\/p>\n<p>The foundation serves more than 1,500 Rohingya patients every day.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have been there for a long time, and have a solid team of dedicated, passionate people who moved very quickly. We know the community, the local people, and the language,\u201d said Dr. Mahmood. \u201cNo one else is doing what we\u2019re doing\u2014maternal health, building a maternity hospital, training midwives\u2014we have a huge responsibility to stay engaged.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/medium.com\/globalgoodness\/living-in-the-after-8cc7398ce20d\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Learn more about Dr. Iftikher Mahmood and his team<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h4>Delivering critical information<\/h4>\n<p>Bala-bura means good-bad in Rohingya. In conversation, it\u2019s similar to saying \u201chow are you: good or bad?\u201d The phrase is also the name of an audio program for Rohingya refugees.<\/p>\n<p>A team of 20 Rohingya refugees produce the program in partnership with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globalgiving.org\/projects\/get-lifesaving-information-to-rohingya-refugees\/?rf=learn\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Internews<\/a>. The nonprofit is dedicated to providing Rohingya refugees with reliable access to lifesaving information. Rumors and misinformation spread quickly in the camps, where tensions between refugees in cramped, dirty conditions, as well as between refugees and Bangladeshis, can easily flare.<\/p>\n<p>The refugees who produce Bala-Bura address issues in the camp, like how to deal with monsoon season, and interview fellow refugees in order to pass along their concerns to humanitarian organizations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI feel happy that you ask how I\u2019m doing. I don\u2019t get to share my thoughts and ideas often,\u201d a Rohingya mother of seven recently told Internews.<\/p>\n<p>Bala-Bura is one of several information sharing programs that Internews is working on. They also distribute a paper bulletin to keep data flowing in the camps and fund a radio program that brings together 12 correspondents\u2014half of whom are Rohingya, half of whom are Bangladeshi\u2014to discuss issues affecting refugees and host communities.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.globalgiving.org\/projects\/rohingya-refugee-relief-fund\/reports\/#menu\/?rf=learn\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Learn more about how you\u2019re bringing essential services to Rohingya refugees<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><em>You can help meet urgent needs with a donation today to GlobalGiving\u2019s Rohingya Refugee Relief Fund.
