**Helena Christensen** has spent some time in Jordan this week meeting refugees from Syria, Iraq and Somalia who've fled their homes because of war.

The supermodel and UNHCR Ambassador has been documenting her visit to Azraq refugee camp on Instagram for her hundreds of thousands of followers to help share the stories of some of the 40,000 people living there.

"This little boy was born 20 minutes ago, in the midst of a freezing winter in the Azraq refugee camp outside Amman, Jordan," **Helena** writes in a post showing a video of her cradling the infant.

**Helena** also shares the story of 5-year-old Seham who was one of the first children born inside the camp's small hospital.

"All Seham knows is life inside a refugee camp. The UNHCR provides her and her family with a roof over their heads, insulated walls for winter, blankets, heaters, cash for food....but the winters are freezing cold and more help is needed."

"Most families had to flee without hardly any possessions and their homes in the camp or in urban settlements are bare and empty," she explains.

During her visit, **Helena** \- who's also a professional photographer - took a number of photos of the camp and the refugees she met. Some of these photos are being auctioned off at the **Abu Dhabi Dream Ball Gala** to raise funds for the UNHCR:
