Adahi/Qurbani – Food Insecurity

Thousands of families in Syria, Gaza, Lebanon, and the West Bank face severe food shortages, making meat an unaffordable luxury. During Eid Al-Adha, we provided vulnerable and displaced families in need with nutritious meat, reaching 1000 people – restoring a sense of hope, and joy. This enables us to continue to combat malnutrition and give hope.

Sewing for Hope – A MHPSS Initiative

In Gaza, children dream of the most basic gifts during the Eid celebrations, knowing they are out of reach for so many. Our team helped make their dreams a reality by hosting two events during Eid Al-Adha to provide Eid clothes for the children, bringing joy, and relief to their families.

Mothers were given the opportunity to design and sew Eid clothes for their children, helping reduce stress, foster hope, and allow families to celebrate despite their difficult circumstances. In addition, our team distributed new Eid clothes to children in Gaza. Eid clothes were also distributed to children in the West Bank during an Eid party. Click here to watch the video!

  • Case Management
  • Psychosocial Support Activities

Orphan Sponsorship Program

Our team organized an Eid celebration event for the children, providing fun activities during the Eid holiday. The celebration was held in our Ufuq Community Center – a safe place for children to receive care services and participate in fun activities, and for parents/caregivers to receive support and training. 

The program strengthens child protection by providing comprehensive, individualized case management for some of the most vulnerable orphaned children in northwest Syria—improving child well-being, resilience, and protection. Giving hope for a brighter future. Through proactive outreach, early identification, and coordinated care planning, children’s needs across:
