Warm Clothes Urgently Needed for Refugee Children

Kurdistan has been hit by the coldest weather in nearly 10 years. Thick snow on tents and in the camps is making life miserable for ‘000s of refugees. Many children have only thin track suits. Newly arrived refugees from Syria have only the clothes on their backs.

The Kurdish government Joint Crisis Committee have invited us to direct our recent donation to clothe some of the 1,000 Syrian refugees in Bardarash camp, Kurdistan. The refugees arrived recently from war torn Syria with nothing but the clothes they were wearing. So we will distribute 300 jackets and socks purchased last weekend to these Syrian children before the end of this week.

But there are many more children who need warm clothes. Donate so we can keep more children warm.

Thank you to NGO The Lotus Flower for their help in logistics and communications with the Kurdish government in this project.
