One year on, children affected by the earthquake still need help

The earthquake in Syria and Türkiye stole thousands of lives and forever altered millions. The destruction was unfathomable after the 7.8 earthquake struck. Over the past year, we have partnered with over 12 partners and donors to help communities in Syria and Türkiye recover.

With over 1 million children and families reached so far, your help is making a difference. But so many more remain in need as they seek to rebuild their lives. Your donation today will help those who are still recovering from this disaster.

They still need your support.

How your donation helps

Your donation today will help support children and families whose lives were turned upside down. Our local teams are still working hard to meet the needs of those who are still vulnerable-even one year on.

Tens of thousands of children are still facing enormous physical and mental challenges. We're still committed to supporting families with food, shelter and long-term psychological support.

You can help children recover from trauma. Your help can provide essential items that continue to make a difference after a disaster like this.

Your donation can help provide the assistance that children and families still need as we help them to rebuild their shattered lives.

You still can make a life-changing difference.
