Winter is every parents’ nightmare in Syria
Winter in Syria can be extremely harsh, with periods of heavy snow and temperatures well below zero. 7 million men, women, boys and girls have fled their homes and are internally displaced; many have been forced to flee with inadequate clothing and have to stay in make-shift shelters, which leaves them extremely vulnerable to rain, snow and freezing temperatures.
Over 1.5 million children face freezing temperatures this winter, without warm clothes, good food, or shelter to keep them warm. People living in extreme poverty and fleeing from violence are struggling to survive. In Syria, families displaced by war huddle together to keep warm.
Do something today to save lives in Syria this winter.
Each year, Penny Appeal is on the ground reaching tens of thousands of people with life-saving winter aid including warm food, clothing, blankets and heating essentials. This year, insha’Allah we will be delivering your aid to those most in need across eight countries, one of which is Syria.
