Syrian Crisis
The Syrian civil war of the last three years has led to over 200,000 fatalities, 4.25 million internally displaced people and over 3.2 million people displaced abroad, mostly in Lebanon, Jordan, Turkey, Iraq and Egypt.
Many of the worst affected civilians are women with young children who are suffering shock, minor trauma, and lack food, safe water, hygiene and medical attention. As winter approaches, they will also need blankets and warm clothing. There are fears of the spread of typhoid and diarrhoea due to the lack of safe drinking water and sanitation in many of the refugee settings.
Humanity First is working on the ground in Syria and Turkey. HF is running two schools for refugee children in Mafraq and Amman, providing long-term support to over 200 refugees now in SE Turkey, and providing blankets and relief supplies to families living in tents outside of the major camps.
