TV-aksjonen 2026 collects NOK 251,299,209 for NRC Flyktninghjelpen

NRK said on 18 October that the campaign had collected NOK 251,299,209, with 62,000 collectors out across the country. All of it goes to NRC Flyktninghjelpen, to help people who have fled war find a safe place to live. The final amount will keep rising until mid-December.

NRC Flyktninghjelpen secretary general Jan Egeland said, in NRK's report, that the organisation can start at once to give safe homes to thousands of families fleeing war. NRK also said an appeal by Sigrid Bonde Tusvik, with words chosen by the audience, brought in NOK 1,333,466 while she spoke.

NRK said in a press release on 16 September that the broadcast, hosted by Adelina Ibishi and Tarjei Strøm, would go out from Bergen inkluderingssenter. It said the programme would include a concert with Kringkastingsorkestret and well-known Norwegian artists.
