John, I had to make sure you saw this message about the devastating earthquake in Türkiye (also referred to as Turkey) and Syria. As this situation continues to evolve rapidly, Save the Children’s emergency response staff across the region are working to assess and meet the urgent needs of children and families. 

When a crisis of this magnitude strikes, our teams are among the first to respond and the last to leave, remaining in affected areas as long as it takes to meet children’s physical and emotional needs.

But we can’t do it without your support. That’s why we’re asking you to rush a donation to the Children’s Emergency Fund today to help respond to the urgent needs of children and families impacted by disasters like yesterday’s devastating earthquakes.

We can’t thank you enough for being there for children, especially during difficult times like these.

John: Early this morning, a devastating 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck Türkiye (also referred to as Turkey) and Syria. Thousands of people have been killed – and thousands more are injured and displaced. Our teams are in the region assessing the situation and ready to respond to protect children.

Please, will you make a gift to our Children's Emergency Fund to support children impacted by disasters like today’s earthquake in Türkiye and Syria?

When a disaster like this strikes, children are always among the most vulnerable, John. Our teams are preparing to respond to this emergency, as thousands of children are without shelter in the freezing cold. But this is going to take considerable resources, and that’s why we’re asking you to contribute to our Children's Emergency Fund right now. 

Rush an emergency donation to support children whose lives and futures are threatened by devastating natural disasters like this morning’s earthquake.

Thank you for being there for children, especially in moments of emergency.
