Friend: A decade of war in Syria has left the country's water and sanitation infrastructure in shambles. More than three million people&mdash;many of whom are already displaced&mdash;now face a severe water crisis.


Doctors Without Borders/Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) and other humanitarian organizations are struggling to meet the growing demands, largely because of a decrease in funding for water and sanitation activities.

That is why we're asking committed supporters to help us fill these critical funding gaps. Please consider making an emergency gift to be used where needed most.


The water crisis has had a profound impact on the people in northwest Syria. Because of a lack of funds, many organizations have been forced to stop their water trucking activities in several camps and villages like Deir Hassan, resulting in a troubling uptick in cases of waterborne illnesses.


&ldquo;Just between the months of May and June 2021, which is the period when some of these activities were stopped, waterborne diseases increased by 47 percent,&rdquo; said Teresa Graceffa, MSF medical coordinator for Syria.

The data is clear, Friend: a lack of funding for water and sanitation activities endangers people&rsquo;s lives.


In the 10 years that MSF has been on the ground in Syria, we have developed a comprehensive water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) response. Earlier this year, MSF doubled the number of camps served with WASH activities in Idlib governorate. We are now running water and sanitation services in about 90 camps in northwest Syria, reaching approximately 30,000 displaced people.

Your support today will help us continue delivering urgently needed water supplies to Syrians in response to this escalating crisis&mdash;and help us provide lifesaving care in more than 70 other countries around the world.

Please make a generous, tax-deductible gift to MSF now.
