With your help, GlobalGiving partners have been supporting Syrian refugees for several years. The world’s eyes and ears are finally turning toward the crisis. An estimated 4 million people, half of them children, have fled to neighboring countries, and 7.4 million people are internally displaced. This is one of the worst humanitarian crises of our time.
GlobalGiving donors like you have committed to supporting these refugees with immediate rescue efforts and long-term support to help the displaced individuals and families rebuild their lives.
We need your help now more than ever. Now is the time to give and to encourage others who care about this crisis to help. Thank you for assisting during this staggering crisis.
Project reports on GlobalGiving are posted directly to globalgiving.org by Project Leaders as they are completed, generally every 3-4 months. To protect the integrity of these documents, GlobalGiving does not alter them; therefore you may find some language or formatting issues.
If you donate to this project or have donated to this project, you can receive an email when this project posts a report. You can also subscribe for reports without donating.
When a disaster strikes, recovery efforts led by people who live and work in affected communities are often overlooked and underfunded. GlobalGiving is changing this reality. Since 2004, we've been shifting decision-making power to crises-affected communities through trust-based grantmaking and support.
We make it easy, quick, and safe to support people on the ground who understand needs in their communities better than anyone else.
They were there long before the news cameras arrived, and they’ll be there long after the cameras leave. They know how to make their communities more resilient to future disasters, and they’re already hard at work. GlobalGiving puts donations and grants directly into their hands. Because the status quo—which gives the vast majority of funding to a few large organizations—doesn’t make sense.
