Our Purpose

To rebuild and re-energize humanity for Syria by working for a healthier future generation.

Mission Statement

We don’t know when there will be a solution to the conflict in Syria. But we know that every Syrian deserves a future in health and dignity.

And this is where we come in: We provide comprehensive health, nutrition, and protection services in areas inside Syria where no one else is taking over this responsibility. We focus on the needs of displaced people and the communities hosting them. We aim to honor every patient’s dignity and empower the health workforce in Syria.
