Our mission

An independent non-governmental, non-profit organi-
zation that provides humanitarian aid for Syrians neu-
trally and without any discrimination, and seeks to em-
power people through fulfilling their basic needs.

Our Priorities

• Respond to the increasing basic needs of forcefully
displaced Syrians and the hosting communities.

• Support the education sector in Syria which has
been greatly affected by the damage and destruc-
tion of schools and related infrastructure causing
children to miss school years.

• Participate in projects for revamp of destroyed in-
frastructure of residential buildings and public ser-
vice facilities.

• Respond to the challenges and obstacles facing the
most vulnerable groups in the community including
women, children, and people with special needs.

• Respond to the deteriorating economic situation of
refugees and displaced persons and address the ris-
ing rates of unemployment and lack of job opportu-
nities.

gerness of our donors to provide assistance, and
therefore we strive to make the most out of ev-
ery donation while upholding the highest ethical
standards.

Dignity - We believe human dignity is a top prior-
ity regardless of the circumstances, and we work
hard to make that happen.

What we offer?

01.

Seasonal and Emergency Campaigns

Through these campaigns, we aim to alleviate the pain of the most
vulnerable parts of our communities. Seasonal campaigns are tied
to specific seasons year-round (such as Winter, Ramadan, Eid Joy
and Al-Adha). Emergency campaigns come as a rapid response
to areas that suffer from bombing, mass displacement or severe
weather conditions (such as Loaf of bread, Emergency response to
the displaced of Ghouta and Idlib).

02.

Refugee Sponsorship Program

The program aims to provide financial and emotional support
to children under 15 years of age who lost one or both parents
by offering monthly monetary aid offered by one of our spon-
sors. The program ensures close monitoring of the children
and caters to their basic needs of food, shelter and healthcare
within the means and resources available.

needs of the most vulnerable groups and under-
stand the active and potential threats. We also
work with all our teams to implement the core
principles of protection in different functions

ceive the aid they need. We strive to implement
the highest levels of accountability and partici-
pation of our teams and partners.
