Emergency Aid for Syria

Samina Chowdhury is raising money for Salam Charity

Samina's Emergency Aid for Syria · 4 May 2021

Salam Charity works across multiple countries, responding to emergency crises and displacement. We support Palestinian, Syrian, and Sudanese refugees and deliver life-saving aid to families affected by conflict, while helping communities rebuild, recover, and strengthen resilience for the future.

Story

I have been so blessed with the opportunity to go on deployment for the first time to help aid at the Lebanon/Syrian border with Salam Charity.

Over 1.5 million Syrian and Palestinian refugees live in Lebanon – a country of only 6 million. Lebanon is experiencing the worst economic crisis in its history. The skyrocketing food prices hit the most vulnerable the hardest. And now, winter is here, threatening to bring with it snowy storms, icy weather, and sub-zero temperatures whilst plunging refugee families into even greater hardship.

Lebanon hosts one of the largest populations of Syrian and Palestinian refugees – all crammed into overcrowded and often dangerous camps with no heating, electricity, or running water. 

I will be delivering essential aid this winter with the Salam Charity to Syrian and Palestinian refugees in Lebanon. We will be distributing winter kits including warm clothing, fuel and much-needed food packs to give them the chance to survive the sub-zero conditions.

How you can help:

Food Pack | £60 | Feeds a family for 1 month

Packs of Bread | £200 | Provides 700 packs of bread

Hot Meals | £10 | Feeds a family hot food 

Fuel | £60 | Gives a family 4 weeks supply of fuel to keep warm

Blankets | £12 | Give families warmth

Sheep Sacrifice | £180 | Provides meat for families

Full Tent Rehabilitation  | £1000 | Full repair to provide protection this winter 

Tuk Tuk | £2500 | Provides a job for someone who can earn income

The situation now is only deteriorating and to say that refugees in Lebanon feel like a forgotten people is a huge understatement.
