SYRIA EMERGENCY APPEAL
Syria Crisis on the Ground
For over a decade, Syria has endured unimaginable suffering. Millions of refugees and internally displaced people face harsh conditions, food insecurity, and a lack of basic necessities. Blackburn UK Trust is on the ground, delivering vital aid to Syrian families in need—thanks to your support.
Syrian Refugees Crisis 2024
The Syrian refugee crisis remains one of the world's largest humanitarian emergencies. In 2024, families continue to struggle for survival, facing freezing winters, food shortages, and limited access to healthcare and education. Our mission is to bring hope and relief to those who need it most.
Supporting Syrian Families
Alhamdulillah, your generosity and the efforts of the Blackburn UK Trust team have enabled us to deliver a range of life-saving projects for Syrian families. Here's how your support is making a difference:
Winter Packs
Every winter, we distribute essential winter packs to help families survive the freezing temperatures. These packs include warm clothing, blankets, and heating supplies, ensuring that children and vulnerable individuals are protected from the cold.

Hot Meals for Orphans
One of the most urgent needs for Syrian families is food. Many children, especially orphans, are going hungry. We provide food packs to families and hot meals to orphans, ensuring they do not have to go to bed hungry. Each meal delivered is a step toward combating malnutrition and restoring dignity.

Hifz Sponsorship for Orphans
The war has robbed many children of their parents, but it cannot take away their faith. Through our Hifz sponsorship program, we support orphaned children in their journey to memorize the Qur'an. This program ensures that despite losing their families, these children grow up with a strong connection to their faith, a beacon of light amid the darkness of war.

Sponsorship for Widows and Disabled Children
The most vulnerable members of Syrian society, including widows and disabled children, often have nowhere to turn. With your support, we provide financial assistance and care to those who need it most. This sponsorship helps families meet their basic needs, granting them dignity and support.

Microfinance for Livelihoods
Surviving in Syria is not enough; families need to rebuild their lives. Through our microfinance program, we distribute garlic seeds to establish a sustainable source of income. This initiative empowers families to support themselves and regain a sense of normalcy in the wake of disaster.
Refurbished School
In Turkey, we refurbished a school to provide displaced Syrian children with a safe space for education. This initiative offers children a chance to regain stability, pursue their dreams, and overcome the hardships of displacement, giving families hope for a brighter future.

Water Well Station at Masjid Uthman
In Syria, we built a water well station at Masjid Uthman to serve the community with clean water for both drinking and ablution. This vital resource not only supports daily hygiene practices but also provides safe drinking water, ensuring the community's health and spiritual well-being.
Shelters and Homes
The destruction of homes has left many families without shelter. We provide safe shelters and homes, giving families a place to live and a sense of security. These homes are more than just roofs over their heads, they are sanctuaries where families can heal and rebuild their lives.
Conclusion
Alhamdulillah, these projects are only possible because of your generosity and support. The Syrian people are our brothers and sisters, and it is our collective responsibility to help them. From providing warm clothes and food to supporting long-term recovery programs, your contributions save lives.
Our Prophet ﷺ said
