A devastating 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck southeast Turkey and northern Syria, killing more than 5,000 people, collapsing hundreds of homes and trapping families under mountains of wreckage in chilling temperatures. The number of casualties keeps growing.
As families search for their loved ones, we must come together to support them. Multiply the impact of your gift by giving to the Disaster Relief Fund at the Center for Arab American Philanthropy (CAAP), where 100% of your donation, with an additional 50 cents to the dollar match, will be granted to your choice of:
- Syrian American Medical Society (SAMS), who is on the ground in Syria, delivering a comprehensive emergency response to save lives
- And/or Oxfam America, who is assessing the needs on the ground in Syria and Turkey and will provide protection, water and sanitation, shelter and food support, as well as long-term rehabilitation and reconstruction as needed
So many members of our community have families in these areas, and we are deeply concerned for their safety. When we give smart and give together, we are able to magnify our impact. Please give now to take advantage of this matching gift.
