The Guardian and Observer Charity Appeal 2024

War changes everything.

With the horrifying increase in conflicts across the globe this year, millions more civilians have seen their world turned upside down.

You can help those caught in the crossfire by donating to the Guardian winter appeal. The donations will go to War Child and MSF to help support individuals impacted by the horrific effects of war – from emergency aid to psychological support. Plus, we have teamed up with Parallel Histories who help teach children about contested conflicts.
