Edinburgh Cares in partnership with The Well Foundation is
running following urgent appeals

We operate a 100 percent donations policy. All of your donations are spent solely on what you donated for—to help the world’s neediest people. Our volunteers pay for their own travel so donations reach the needy in full. There are no overheads to cover, we cover them.

Money donated here will be used for following appeals to help Syrians in crisis but if you wish to donate for any specific appeal then please mention it in the comments or email us to inform us of your preferences.

APPEAL 1- SYRIA A HUMAN CATASTROPHE

Syria is being attacked from every angle: Russian, US and UK
airstrikes, bombing and attacks by Assad’s forces and death and destruction from ISIS. In just one day, up to 70 air strikes are carried out in any one area, even civilian areas. These attacks have left scores dead and thousands injured and displaced.

We invite you to donate now and help us on our mission to help
the Syrian people. Their suffering is unimaginable. If you could see the grief and tragedy suffered at losing just one family member – and they lose loved ones every day – you’d see these are people; not statistics, they’re people with a past, hoping for a future. It could just as easily be your mother, your brother. You.

We appeal to you to show a human response to the crisis in
Syria. Donate so we can help alleviate this human catastrophe.

APPEAL 2 – LEBANON – A PLACE FORGOTTEN

Since the war started in Syria, its neighbouring country
Lebanon has experienced an overflow of more than 1.1 million refugees. This massive number doesn’t include the estimated 700,000 unregistered refugees and the fact that the UNHCR stopped registering refugees in January 2015. Most of these refugees are living in makeshift tents mired in mud, while the bite of a freezing winter settles around them.

Millions are in desperate need of food and urgent aid items
to help them through the winter. Our aid missions for Lebanon start in January 2016 and will continue on a regular basis.

We invite you to donate now and help us on our missions to
help the refugees in Lebanon. Their suffering is unimaginable. We appeal to you to show a human response. Lebanon has opened their doors to the Syrian refugees. Now it’s up to us to help alleviate this human crisis and suffering.
