UN Human Rights

International law prohibits torture under all circumstances, yet this heinous practice persists worldwide. Despite the tireless efforts of the global community, torture and ill-treatment continue, often without consequences for the perpetrators. Survivors and their families rarely receive the justice, reparations, and rehabilitation they deserve. For over 40 years, the UN Voluntary Fund for Victims of Torture has been a beacon of hope for those affected. By directing donations to grassroots organizations, the Fund provides essential support to over 50,000 survivors each year. With your generous donation, the UN Voluntary Fund for Victims of Torture can offer: Medical, psychological, social, legal, economic, humanitarian, and educational support to survivors and their families. Capacity-building assistance to civil society organizations, enhancing their ability to meet the diverse needs of survivors. Emergency grants for immediate aid during sudden human rights or humanitarian crises, addressing the urgent needs of torture survivors. Just $175 can transform a survivor's life for an entire year, helping them recover and seek justice. Your contribution can make a world of difference. Donate now and stand with survivors of torture.

Support the people who protect our basic needs, justice, and freedom. Human rights don’t defend themselves, they are upheld by people. People who choose to stand up, speak out, or work tirelessly behind the scene to support and protect others, often in the most difficult and demanding circumstances. These are the Humans in Human Rights: dedicated individuals who monitor abuses, advocate for justice, provide expert advice, improve human rights systems and help communities access their rights. Their work is quiet but powerful, and it changes lives. But this work is underfunded. When resources fall short, so do the protections that millions rely on. Your donation helps ensure this vital work continues. It supports protection and care, strengthens advocacy, increases expert advice and helps respond to urgent needs of the communities they serve. It means more people can be protected, more voices heard, and more rights upheld. Stand with the Humans in Human Rights. Your support makes their work possible.
