We're raising £40,000 to help provide education and health services to vulnerable Syrian communities whose lives have been shattered by conflict. This work provides salaries for Syrian professionals, school for Syrian refugees and basic healthcare for thousands of people each year.

Situation
Over ten years of conflict in Syria have devastated the country and shattered the lives of millions. Syrians have lost their families, homes and jobs as well as basic services. Many skilled professionals (notably doctors, nurses and teachers) have left the country, leaving behind a vacuum of skills in communities which can barely sustain themselves. It is vital that these people are not forgotten and left without access to proper education and health services.
Solution
We believe in giving Syrians a hand up not a handout, and in the dignity gained by empowering local Syrian communities. We put our confidence in Syrian expertise to run local projects, nimbly delivering aid to wherever it is needed most. Working with local partners, we provide solutions to health and education issues facing Syrian communities inside Syria and other countries where they now find themselves. These projects are designed to be sustainable, providing employment for Syrians.
