Refugee Aid

SUPPORT FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES IN THE CROSSHAIRS OF WAR

Persecution, violence and war shatter the lives of families and communities and displace more than 59 million people every year.  These individuals, children and families are often denied human rights and basic needs. Provide  humanitarian aid to help ensure refugees in crisis around the world have the resources needed to survive.

  • Providing 60,000 Syrian refugees with food upon arrival to refugee camps
  • Ensuring that 25,370 Syrian refugees have access to fresh water despite the region’s drought
  • Sending hundreds of doctors and medical professionals in short-term service to hospitals and clinics in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East
  • Ending hunger by 2013

Jamail’s Story 

Jamail, his wife, and three children fled Mosul, running for their lives after ISIS bombed their village and took their possessions. Their youngest son is paralyzed from a brain stroke and suffers from many health problems. In a refugee camp in Irbil, they sought safety and protection for their family while trying to rebuild their lives. Our charity partner was able to help them get basic necessities, as well as provide food, hygiene items, and kids’ hunger packets.
