Help CREATE HOPE in a time of despair
Partner with ShelterBox and Williamsport MD Rotary to provide tents and supplies that will aid victims of the Turkey-Syria Earthquake.
“Powerful earthquakes have ravaged southern Turkey and northern Syria, killing more than 50,000 people and damaging 66,000 buildings.
Homes have been destroyed or left unsafe and people have been sleeping in the open. The freezing temperatures create an immediate risk to life for people who are too afraid to return home or have no home to go back to.
In northwest Syria many buildings were already damaged by years of civil war, and that’s where some of the worst damage has been reported.
With 3 million people already displaced by the war, Syria is at breaking point. Families are facing harsh living conditions, freezing temperatures and diseases like cholera. They have faced the destruction of war, only to be hit again by these events.”
