Send them love, hope and health. Ensure they feel loved just as much as anyone else. We all have our own struggles.

Being involved in the global community is an awesome thing. Getting involved with organizations that function on a global scale and align with your beliefs is a way to help people in other countries. Doing health kit drives, food drives, or raising money in some way are common ways people support such global organizations and people in other countries.

It is always best to lend a listening ear. Show great amounts of empathy. You never know the difference of what is and isn't appropriate in different countries, so let them lead the conversation.

Simply being there for someone can help more than you know! It is always nice to have someone to talk to.

Refer them to a listener who speaks their language, knows their culture, which will enable them to talk about their problems more openly and express themselves accordingly.

You can help by finding organization or self funding website, and putting proper research into where the money actually gets spent and ends up, because alot of organizations don't spend money properly and it can seem hopeless.
