The Covid-19 pandemic has made 2022 one of the most challenging years for humanity due to the economy's struggle to recover and many lives being lost. Many people have struggled from the after-effects of the pandemic, and people all around the world are still at risk of contracting the virus and suffering from other illnesses. Winter will bring a new and deadly threat to the lives of the 79.5 million people forced out of their homes and living in poverty. Lifesaving items like food, fuel, and heating could support mothers, children, and families in areas where the need is greatest. Keep them alive, keep them warm. Help them survive this winter with our winter charity appeal.
When the temperature drops, the risk to the lives of millions of vulnerable people increases. After enduring a treacherous year with war, natural disaster, and a global pandemic, the change in weather brings a new and dangerous threat. Without adequate shelter, warm clothing, blankets, heating, or food - freezing to death is a real possibility.
Having survived poverty, fought Covid-19, fled war, endured life in camps or on the streets, millions of people now have no protection against the cold winter weather. Freezing nights, snow, rain, and harsh winds will only claim more lives. Children, the elderly, the homeless and those dealing with long-term illnesses will lose their lives to hypothermia, pneumonia, and starvation. Many will not survive to see the warmer days, making charity for winter unequivocally vital.
Maysaa lives in Syria. She is a widow and mother to seven children. Her husband was killed in a bombing five years ago. Now they live in one room in an old public building which is damaged and unsafe. Water frequently gets in, soaking the family. There is no protection from the cold. Maysaa does what she can to earn money so they can eat but she does not know how they will survive this winter. |
