The answer starts with you, John. 3X match starting NOW.
 
 
Monday was the first day of winter, John.

We must step up before the already urgent need for winter supplies becomes more dire. With the triple match just kicking off, there's no better time to make your tax-deductible year-end gift.

In Syria, for example, the nights are already wet and cold. For many, the first freeze will happen any day now.

Yasir* — in the photo below — a father in Syria who fled intense shelling and lives in a tent in a school yard with his family, tells us: "We face so many difficulties here — the cold weather, the lack of food, the lack of medicines... I'm constantly worried about my children. I used to work and was able to afford firewood for heating. Now I can't anymore. I have to collect old shoes to burn in the heater."

He is left asking himself: "How will I keep my family safe and warm this winter?"

You can help parents like Yasir* protect their families this winter with a gift that will now be TRIPLED. Your gift can provide 3X the winter supplies, like blankets and coats. It can help provide shelter, medical care, emergency food and other critical aid in crisis areas. »
 
 
 
Yasir* and his family go out on the roads to find anything they can find to burn to create warmth for the family in their tent in a school yard, in Ma'aret Tamsrin, northwest Syria.

John, winter weather also makes it increasingly difficult for displaced families to travel to health centers. With your support, for example, our mobile medical clinics can continue to run this winter, bringing lifesaving medicine and treatment to families in the world's most remote places.

Your donation — tripled today — can for example: Don't miss the chance to help us help refugee families this winter... and help people affected by humanitarian crises worldwide to survive, recover and rebuild their lives. Right now, your tax-deductible donation will be tripled.
 
 
 
 
Thank you for your support this winter,

Andrea Kost
Senior Officer of Digital Stewardship
International Rescue Committee

All gifts, up to $3 million, will be tripled by a generous donor until December 30 at midnight. Your donation will be used where it is needed most.
