Syria Support Movement solidarity with the Syrian people
The Syria Solidarity Movement is possibly the only US tax exempt 501(c)(3) nonprofit other than the United Nations to provide humanitarian aid in all of Syria other than the terrorist controlled areas of Idlib province. This is because we provide the aid ourselves, not through partnerships with Syrian organizations, which is forbidden by the US imposed international economic sanctions against Syria.
This is only possible with your generous donations. Here is what those donations have accomplished to date. We will update this list periodically.
