Folks,
Many of us are coming to terms with the impact of the coronavirus on our own lives right now — I hope you and your family are safe in these difficult times.

In this moment, we must also stand with those in countries like Syria where years of bombing has left the public health system in disarray.

Look, over the past few months, 84 Syrian health centers operated by the IRC and other humanitarian agencies have had to suspend operations. Life in Syria was already tougher than most of us can imagine — now, in the wake of the coronavirus outbreak, families there need us more than ever.

Please, can you chip in today to help Syria's most vulnerable and refugees in crisis zones around the world?

Home is everything. Home is happiness, stability, and mental health.


Look, those are the beautiful words of Ramez, a small business owner from northwest Syria.

Syria's nine-year war has cost Ramez his business and forced him to flee home three times.

Thankfully, supporters like you helped the IRC secure life-changing financial assistance for Ramez and his family. But, in the midst of this global crisis, there are still thousands of Syrians and refugees worldwide who we still need to reach, support and protect right now. Can they count on you?

Look, your generosity and dedication to our mission is critical to our work in Syria and crisis zones worldwide. Rush a gift of emergency aid now to help us maximize our reach and increase our support of families caught in crisis.

We're hopeful that the recent ceasefire in Idlib holds and brings much-needed relief for families and children who have endured years of airstrikes, shellings and violence. But these breaks in hostilities are never certain and have been short-lived in the past.

And, the truth is: even in this moment, millions of Syrians remain displaced.

We need you to act now. Help us provide essential support – like health care services, food, and shelter – to displaced Syrians and refugees worldwide today.

Sincerely,

Emily Martin
