CHILDREN URGENTLY NEED YOUR HELP NOW

Another earthquake - this time magnitude 6.4 - has hit southern Türkiye and northern Syria, already devastated two weeks ago by a 7.7 magnitude earthquake. As the death toll passes 46,000, survivors remain vulnerable to the freezing cold as they lack basics such as shelter, food, water and sanitation.

Up to 7 million children have been impacted and the earthquakes have caused huge devastation and turned children’s lives upside down overnight.

Our teams in Syria and Türkiye are working directly and with partners to ensure children are getting the crucial support they need immediately. Over 57,000 buildings have collapsed or being damaged, including hospitals, schools and government buildings. 

We are delivering temporary shelters, blankets, clothing and other items to keep families warm. We’re also working with local authorities to help reunite unaccompanied children with their families or give them alternative care arrangements if needed. We’ve set up safe spaces for children to play, recover and regain a sense of normalcy.

rth West our partners have already provided 7,500 people with ready to eat meals, 500 people with blankand 300 people with tents. We’ve also provided food to 200 search and rescue teams and fuel to 2 hospitals in the area. IWe’re now also in a race against time to protect children and their families from facing a secondary humanitarian disaster, as a result of rising hunger, disease outbreaks and a total collapse of public services.
