Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. If you donate, your details will be safe with JustGiving. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

UOSSM found that in 2016, hospitals in Syria sustained a total of 1004 direct & indirect attacks. On average, each hospital was struck 7 times in an indirect attack, and was specifically targeted twice during the course of the year. 

Lack of staff & resources has also caused closures; in 2016 UOSSM found there to be a ratio of just 2 doctors per 10,000 civilians. Many hospital buildings have been damaged & others re-purposed as temporary shelters for internally displaced families. 

The medical sector in Syria is in a deep crisis. With so few doctors left, and a limited number of hospitals open – 1000's of people are left without medical care, in a country with a rising number of casualties. 

Hand in Hand for Syria currently have 4 functioning hospitals in Syria, specialising in Women & Children, Trauma & General surgery, as well as a mobile medical unit & clinic. They also support 20 makeshift hospitals & clinics with medical consumables on a regular basis.  All their hospitals provide free medical treatment to civilians. 

Your contributions will enable them to save countless lives, and continue to provide free health care & treatment to the injured and sick inside Syria. 

Thank you for donating!
