Winter Appeal













CHILDREN’S LIVES FROZEN IN SYRIA AND GAZA

We have launched our 2015 Emergency Appeal to distribute aid to the displaced Syrian refugees in Lebanon and the internally displaced people in Gaza, aiming to alleviate their sufferings amid the severe cold weather hitting these regions. Until March this year, winter temperatures will drop well below zero. These freezing weather conditions will aggravate their plight.


We desperately need to provide blankets, winter clothes, heaters and diesel fuel to thousands of vulnerable families in these areas and as such, your donations are crucial. 

8 year old Sabeen’s home was destroyed by the fighting in Syria, she’s been a refugee in Lebanon for over a year now. “I used to go to school where I could learn and see my friends. I want to go back home but I can’t. We are living in a tent, Mum tries her best to keep us warm. I pray to God to stop the rain and the snow.” Your donations will help Sabeen and her family survive the freezing temperatures.



WILL YOU COME TO THEIR AID?
  • £20 for a clothes pack for children
  • £20 for a bedding pack (mattress, blankets) 
  • £60 to provide food for a family for 1 month
  • £200 to provide a family with 1 month of food and fuel, plus clothing and blankets.
