Story
Through barrel bombs, land mines and more, countless Syrians have had to suffer catastrophic injuries - forever changing the course of their lives. As well as contending with the loss of their homes, their land, and their loved ones, many are also having to face adjusting to a life with a disability caused by the war.
One Familys Refugee Fund partner - the National Syrian Project for Prosthetic Limbs (NSPPL) - has been working tirelessly to provide support to those who have sustained injuries resulting in amputations. As of March 2022, the NSPPL has provided more than 10,000 prosthetics and orthotics to 8,000 Syrian refugees.

The creation of a single prosthetic is a painstaking and expensive process. Each patient who arrives at the NSPPL is carefully taken through a treatment programme to explain how a prosthetic is created and used. Watch the video below to learn more.
With your help, we can help the countless Syrians on the waiting list for a prosthetic: from as young as one-year-old Mohamed Abdulrazak, to 75-year-old Salem Muna.
