Syria: 10 years of crisis
A decade of violence has brought death and destruction to Syria and the surrounding region. Millions of people have been forced from their homes or have fled the country. Many of them are children.
The number of people who desperately need food, access to clean water, medicine and healthcare remains immense. After ten years of pain, loss and turmoil, Syrians cannot afford to endure another year of conflict, let alone another decade.
In spite of the dangers, the International Committee of the Red Cross has been providing life-saving support to Syrians since the beginning. We, alongside the Syrian Arab Red Crescent, are one of the few humanitarian organizations that can help people across the country.
But the scale of the crisis is unimaginable. We must do more. Your support makes a difference – please donate today.
