If COVID-19 can overwhelm health systems in the wealthiest countries, imagine what it will do in a war zone like Syria where, in the northeast, there are just 28 ICU beds and 11 ventilators.
The devastation that COVID-19 will cause in Syria is unimaginable. Many Syrians now live in overcrowded settlements where regular handwashing and social distancing are nearly impossible, putting families in grave danger of contracting the virus.
Today we’re asking you to make a monthly gift to bolster our lifesaving programs worldwide, as COVID-19 hits some of the most fragile communities. When you start your monthly gift today, your first FOUR gifts will be MATCHED up to $50,000, helping IRC deliver TWICE as much aid to families in need.

A lack of food and clean water paired with existing chronic diseases have left hundreds of thousands of Syrians in poor health, making them especially vulnerable to COVID-19.
COVID-19 will leave these communities reeling long after this crisis is over — which is why your monthly gift matters so much.
“People have been through so much already. The additional burden of this pandemic is going to take its toll and they are in as great a need as ever.”
- Dr. Adbalgadir, IRC Health Coordinator in Syria

We will do whatever it takes to keep families healthy and safe, but we can’t do it alone. The IRC is already rushing ventilators and ICU beds to Syria and supporting the COVID-19 response in other crisis-affected countries, but huge gaps remain and urgent funding to the front lines is needed.
Please, if you can, make a monthly gift today to continue our current programs and provide that transformative and lifesaving support >>

We will keep fighting for as long as it takes.
