ALEPPO FOR LIFE
Restoring Dignity, Creating Lasting Impact
CRETE FOR LIFE IN ALEPPO
Our work is about creating sustainable change. We partner with local organizations and volunteers who belong to the community, understand the context and find solutions with the people we support.
INVESTING IN EDUCATION, SECURING A FUTURE
The education system in Aleppo is in a state of crisis. Economic collapse has forced countless families to pull their children out of school, sending them to the labor market to survive. As a result, many children, especially girls, are losing their chance at an education, and with it, the hope for a better future.
Our program addresses this by providing direct financial support for school fees, transportation, and school supplies. This small intervention allows children to stay in the classroom and continue their learning journey.
A Story of Resilience: Meet F., a young woman who was born deaf. Through our educational support program, she is now in her second year of a demanding engineering program at university. F. is not only building a future for herself but is also a beacon of hope for her family and community, proving that with the right support, anything is possible.
SUPPORTNG FAMILIES, PROVIDING STABILITY
For many women in Aleppo, the war and its aftermath have left them as the sole providers for their children. Whether widowed, divorced due to unimaginable stress, or with husbands who are unable to work due to trauma or imprisonment, these women face immense challenges. Lacking credentials and opportunities in a shattered economy, their ability to provide for their families is severely limited.
We provide critical rent subsidies and food baskets to these women-led households. This support offers a foundation of security, ensuring that they can keep a roof over their children’s heads and put food on the table, allowing them to focus on rebuilding their lives.
A Story of Determination: Aisha is a mother of five children. Her husband was recently released from the notorious Sydnaya prison, and the trauma he endured makes it impossible for him to work. Despite this immense challenge, Aisha works tirelessly for a minimal wage. Our support helps cover the family’s rent and provides food, offering a vital lifeline that allows this courageous family to stay together and find stability in a world turned upside down.
