For this year's FESTIVAL 31, Liverpool's refugee based festival, SOLA ARTS is fundraising for people caught up in the conflict zone of Qamishli, North East Syria. We are focused on those needing medical aid, food, removal of children & the elderly from areas affected by fighting

Situation
Qamishli is a forgotten area of Syria. Affected by the conflict in Syria, the area is regularly bombarded by fighting and people have been left to fend for themselves and those most needy are left in despair. There are no basic amenities, food or medical supplies. We are working with Nesrin Yousef, one of SOLA ARTS' core volunteers, to support her campaign to raise funds to help through a teacher in Qamishli, Yasir Hussein, who works daily to get vital support to those most in need.
Solution
Using FESTIVAL 31 (www.festival31.com) as a catalyst for action, we will give 100% of your donations from this campaign to Nesrin who gives all of the donations to Yasir in Qamishli. This will provide essential humantirian support; medical care, food and removal of sick people from the conflict areas. We need your help to make this happen!
