When I emailed Mercy Corps supporters back in December, I had just
returned from a trip to Syria. I went there to document the stories of
people — grandparents, moms, dads and kids — whose lives were threatened
by violence and displacement. My trip was cut short by an escalation in
fighting that has since driven more than 948,000 people from their homes.

I was able to leave the country. Most Syrian families cannot.

I’m proud to report that despite the recent uptick in violence, Mercy
Corps never stopped providing aid in Syria. We operate in ways that can
allow us to carry on through the most difficult times in the most
difficult places — in Syria, and in places affected by violent conflict,
natural disaster, hunger and poverty around the world. It’s challenging
work, but the hardships these communities face are much greater.

Children born in the last 9 years have never known a Syria without
devastating violence. They deserve better. They deserve a chance. Their
families deserve relief and opportunity for the future.

The situation is especially dire now. Winter wind, rain and near freezing
temperatures have compounded Syrians’ suffering and threatened their
health. On top of all the food, water and hygiene-related aid we’ve
provided in recent months, our teams are laser focused on making sure
displaced Syrians have clothes, blankets, wind-resistant shelter, heaters
and other supplies that keep people warm.

And Syria is just one of more than 40 countries around the world where our
teams are battling challenges like hunger, disease and lack of shelter
during these winter months.

The peaceful, prosperous world you and I want won’t create itself. That work is on
us. [ [link removed] ]I hope you’re able to make a difference today — for a safer Syria
and a better world — by pitching in with a gift, especially while matching
funds are still available.

Thank you,
