DONATEIn Syria, over 12 million people are food insecure1 and 1.3 million are severely food insecure. Conditions are particularly dire for children with over 553,000 children are chronically malnourished and 245,000 are acutely malnourished. 2 One in three pregnant women is anemic due to inadequate nutrition.10 Deteriorating economic conditions in Syria and the impact of the COVI-19 pandemic have contributed to such exponential rates of food insecurity and malnutrition among the population. Vital interventions like ready-to-eat therapeutic food and infant and young child feeding (IYCF) programs targeting pregnant and lactating women and their children have proven essential for addressing the hunger crisis.

DONATEThis winter, countless families in Northern Syria and Jordan will confront the bitter cold and wetness without the essentials needed to stay warm and safe. For many, the drop in temperature isn’t just uncomfortable—it’s life-threatening. With winter temperatures plunging as low as -6°C (21°F) in some regions, snowstorms, freezing winds, and cold rains are common, especially for those living in makeshift shelters. After years of conflict and displacement, many families have lost their homes and access to even the most basic resources, making the harsh winter months a season of survival against the elements.
In response, SRD is providing immediate relief through Winter Care Packages for those in need. These packages are designed to equip families with the tools they need to protect themselves from the cold and minimize the risks posed by severe weather. The items included are thermal blankets, warm clothing and shoes —basic supplies that can make all the difference in enduring Syria and Jordan’s harsh winter conditions.
We are offering several donation options to help make an impact:
Your support is critical. By donating, you can help deliver warmth and safety to families struggling to survive. Together, we can provide immediate relief and restore hope to those facing the freezing cold. Join SRD in our effort to ensure no family is left unprotected this winter.

DONATEIn Northwestern Syria, the echoes of conflict are still heard, but so is the sound of hope. IUSR, the leading private university in the region, is more than an academic institution—it’s a lifeline for thousands of students who have faced unimaginable adversity. Our students are determined to rebuild their lives and their communities, despite having been displaced over 20 times in the past decade. They are studying to become the engineers, teachers, and business leaders who will lead Syria into a brighter future.
However, there’s a critical gap in our vision: healthcare. With healthcare infrastructure severely lacking, countless families are without access to proper medical care. That’s why we’re launching a campaign to build the iUSR University Hospital, a teaching hospital that will not only treat patients but also train the next generation of doctors, nurses, and healthcare professionals. This hospital will be a beacon of hope and healing for the entire region.
Why This Matters
Addressing a Major Need: The people of Northwestern Syria need healthcare services now more than ever. By building this hospital, we’re creating a sustainable solution that will benefit countless families for generations to come.
Training the Next Generation: Our hospital will serve as a training ground for medical students who are committed to staying in Syria and rebuilding its healthcare system. This is sustainable development at its best—empowering local talent to create a healthier future.
Supporting a Resilient Community: Every donation helps us take a step closer to realizing a university hospital that will serve a community that’s endured incredible hardship. Your support not only builds a hospital, but it also builds hope.
We can’t do this without you. Our goal is to raise $500,000 to cover the construction costs of the iUSR University Hospital through donations, grants and gifts in kind.
