Syria

"Since the Syrian civil war began in 2011, families are consistently being ripped apart — the brutal conflict has killed hundreds of thousands, including innocent young children who lost their parents and became orphans overnight. In an attempt to be a part of the solution, MAUSA is raising funds to build an orphan and widow center in Gaziantep, Türkiye, along with a school for aged children."

"Since 2011, we have strived to help both families inside of Syria as well as those living in neighboring countries. Our work continues to this day, and will continue until the need for humanitarian aid no longer exists. A few of our interventions include: food aid, access to clean water, access to inclusive and quality education in areas with a high proportion of out-of-school children, humanitarian aid (including access to food, items, and medicine), and winter aid."

"Syria is a war zone and its refugees desperately need your help. Every day, hundreds of refugees try to escape, making the perilous journey on foot, with nothing other than the torn clothes that they are wearing. The majority seek shelter in existing IDP camps in Turkey and Lebanon, where there are insufficient tents to accommodate everyone. Women and children sleep in open fields, in sub-zero temperatures, food, and clean water are in short supply, and medication is scarce."

"Since 2011, SAMS has supported healthcare provision throughout Syria, sponsoring hospitals, mobile clinics, and ambulances, training and paying the salaries of Syrian medical personnel, supporting education for medical students whose studies were interrupted due to the ongoing conflict, and sending life-saving humanitarian aid and medical equipment to where it is needed most. In order to meet growing medical needs due to ongoing conflict, which has been compounded by the COVID-19 pandemic, SAMS continues to expand its operations on the ground. SAMS provided primary and specialized care, including cancer treatment, psychosocial support, dialysis, physical rehabilitation, and more. SAMS currently operates 40 medical facilities, including 12 hospitals and three mobile clinics. Learn more about our impact in the 2020 Annual Report. "

"The IRC has more than 1,000 staff inside Syria working to provide life-saving health care, protection and tailored support to the communities we serve. In response to the devastating earthquake, we are launching an integrated response to provide crucial support to affected populations."
