war relief
Humanitarian conflict support
War relief is aid provided to civilians and displaced people affected by armed conflict—food, medical care, shelter, and other necessities.
The term often appears in the names of charitable organizations: the Near East Relief, the American Committee for War Relief.
During wartime, war relief efforts may include fundraising campaigns, donation drives, and volunteer work to support affected populations.
