Syria warm winter project

Although it is still summer, our team is already looking ahead to the next winter season in Syria. For many displaced and vulnerable families, winter hardship does not begin when the first storm arrives; it begins months earlier, when families know they will not be able to afford heating fuel, warm clothes, blankets, or stronger shelter materials. One mother recently shared that her family still remembers the difficult choices they had to make last winter: keeping children warm, buying food, or saving money for basic needs.

At this stage, our planned winter activities have not yet begun because the funding received for this project remains very limited. We want to be transparent with our donors: the current amount raised is not enough to carry out a fair and meaningful distribution of winter items. Rather than beginning with support that would reach only a very small number of families, we are keeping the project active while continuing preparation, coordination, and outreach so that assistance can be delivered responsibly once sufficient funds are available.

This early preparation matters. Once funding allows, SIVIL IDARE DERNEGI plans to prioritize displaced families, children, older people, women, and people with disabilities with essential winter support such as blankets, warm clothing, mattresses, heating fuel, and winterized shelter materials. We also plan to share practical awareness messages on safe heating to help reduce winter-related risks when cold weather returns.

Your early support helps this project build momentum before the winter season begins. We will continue to report honestly on our progress, and once implementation starts, we will share clear updates about the families reached, the items distributed, and the impact made possible by your support.
