Over 85,000 refugees (OCHA) have fled Syria in the wake of the persistent internal conflict. Over 28,000 of those individuals have fled north to Turkey, more than half of which are aged 17 and under. These individuals are currently being housed and supported in four large camp centres. Refugee influx into Turkey from Syria continues to rise as the situation grows increasingly unstable, and thousands of refugees, displaced from their homes, rely on the support of others to persevere.

Many of these refugees have fled with little more than the clothing on their backs and what meager possessions they could carry across the border. These people desperately need your assistance.

IDRF is developing a proposal to help assist Syrian Refugees in Turkey with much needed food packages and milk powder for their children during the month of Ramadan. IDRF will do what we can to help alleviate the suffering. These people must go to sleep every night uncertain of what will become of their home – help IDRF ensure that they do not go to sleep uncertain of where to find a meal.

During the month of Ramadan in this time of crippling uncertainty for Syria, let us offer these displaced peoples the guarantee of our support.
