Aid to the Church in Need (ACN) is making an urgent appeal for prayer and support for the Christian community and all residents of Aleppo, Syria, who are facing a worsening humanitarian crisis following the recent occupation of the city by anti-government rebel groups, some of whom have clear jihadist orientations. Although these groups have promised respect, the situation remains uncertain and extremely insecure for the contested areas.
ACN is actively responding to this crisis through emergency aid projects and is appealing for €350,000 to fund:
Medical assistance to support hospitals treating critical cases and elderly and chronically ill patients.
Aid for displaced people, providing food, mattresses, and blankets to displaced families both in Aleppo and other areas.
Alternative solar and electrical energy.
Support for Christian schools in Aleppo.
How you can help:
Pray: Ask your parish, community and family to pray for Aleppo, and for peace in Syria.
Donate: Your contributions will provide vital resources for food, shelter, and medical care.
