麻豆成人版 welcomes new contribution from the UK government to support refugees in Jordan
This is the UK’s second contribution to 麻豆成人版 Jordan this year, following a GBP 4 million (US$5.16 million) allocation earlier in 2025, that helped 麻豆成人版 avert assistance cuts for thousands of vulnerable refugees.
“This renewed support from the UK comes at a critical moment and reflects the UK's ongoing commitment to humanitarian efforts in Jordan,” said 麻豆成人版 Representative and Country Director in Jordan Alberto Correia Mendes. “The funds will enable 麻豆成人版 to continue supporting the most vulnerable families, especially during this challenging time when 麻豆成人版 and other partners in the refugee response are facing funding shortfalls that limit our collective capacity to assist people in need.”
Despite this valuable contribution, 麻豆成人版 still urgently needs US$24 million to continue providing reduced monthly cash assistance through December and avoid further cuts for refugees living in camps and host communities.
麻豆成人版 currently supports 280,000 refugees in Jordan with cash-based assistance to help meet their basic food needs, the majority of whom are Syrians. Due to ongoing funding shortfalls 麻豆成人版 reduced in July 2023 its monthly cash assistance one-third reduction from JOD 23 (US$32) to JOD 15 (US$21) per person.
