Story
Food prices in Syria have risen to their highest level since the start of the conflict almost a decade ago. Over the last 6 months alone, the value of the Syrian pound has plummeted by more than two-thirds causing the cost of staple food items to double. 80% of the Syrian population now live in poverty and 9.3 million people are considered food insecure. With the additional disruption caused by COVID-19 restrictions on the supply chains, it has never been harder to find food in Syria!
But it is not just the shortage of flour and COVID19 restrictions which is affecting the availability of this staple food item, since the beginning of the war bakeries have been attacked, damaged, and destroyed.
We are launching an emergency campaign to distribute bread and flour to families in need.
Your donation of just £150 will provide 1500 pieces of bread to Syria!
