Through the Danish European Mission's project, refugees receive vital emergency aid to get them through the winter alive.
Food and packages to help you through the winter
Since the fall of 2012, our partner has been providing emergency aid to internally displaced people. Those in need receive food parcels, baby food, medicine, hygiene items and clothing. During the cold winter months, they also receive warm clothes, shoes, socks, blankets, mattresses and fuel.
The aid is packed and then distributed by local partners in Syria. The aid reaches people in Aleppo and the surrounding area as well as remote Kurdish villages and towns in northern Syria, which are largely cut off from aid due to intercultural tensions. In the northeastern part of the country, aid is reaching areas where refugees are seeking protection: al-Hasakeh, Tel Tamar, Qamishli and Malkieh.
Local Christians are delivering the relief aid
Our local partners are familiar with the culture, people and situation of the location and can therefore provide targeted and fast assistance. They have a good local network and avoid overlapping assistance. In many places, they are among the few, sometimes the only ones helping refugees in need.
Emergency aid rhymes with charity
Through practical Christian charity, they are a witness to their fellow human beings. Help is provided to people regardless of their ethnic and religious affiliation. This is also the reason why our ethnically diverse teams are continuously approached by others who also want to help.
More than ever, those in need in Syria depend on this help.
- It costs approximately DKK 975 to ensure a refugee family has warm clothes, shoes, mattresses, blankets and fuel this winter.
- It costs approximately 585 DKK to ensure a refugee family has food and medicine for a month.
Refugee families will feel that people in Denmark stand with them in the cold winter time.
