Winter Appeal for Syrian Refugees
Winter Has Not Ended for Syrian Families Living in Tents
More than a decade after displacement, thousands of Syrian families are still living in tents, exposed to freezing temperatures, heavy rain, and strong winds. Political change does not rebuild destroyed homes, restore income, or provide heating. For many families, winter remains a direct threat to health, safety, and survival.
Children sleep on cold, damp ground. Elderly people face life-threatening conditions. Families burn unsafe materials because they have no other choice.
Since 2015, Syrian Hands and the Japan Islamic Trust (JIT) have stood with Syrian refugees living in tents—year after year, delivering winter aid to protect families from extreme cold and prevent avoidable suffering. This commitment continues today because the need has not ended.
This winter, our response is immediate and practical:
Supplying winter blankets
Providing firewood for safe heating
Purchasing items locally, supporting affected communities
Cold kills silently—especially children and the elderly.
This is not about comfort. It is about survival and dignity.
Your support = warmth, safety, and protection from the cold.

Why This Matters
For families displaced by the Syrian conflict, winter is one of the hardest seasons to survive. In flimsy tents, unfinished shelters, or damaged homes, freezing temperatures threaten the health and safety of children, the elderly, and those already vulnerable.
That’s why Syrian Hands & JIT delivers direct winter relief where it’s needed most. Since 2015, we’ve provided heating oil, firewood, and winter clothing to thousands of families in Syria and to refugees in Lebanon, ensuring they can endure the harshest months with warmth and dignity.
What we provide
Through your support, Syrian Hands & JIT delivers essential winter aid to families in need:
Heating Oil & Firewood — Fuel to keep homes and shelters warm during freezing nights.
Winter Clothing — Jackets, blankets, and shoes collected and sent in containers to families facing harsh winter conditions.
Shelter Support — Assisting families in fragile housing with materials and essentials to strengthen protection against the cold.
Together, these efforts bring not just warmth, but hope and dignity to thousands of displaced families every winter.
Our Mission
At Syrian Hands & JIT, our mission is simple yet powerful: to preserve dignity, protect lives, and bring warmth to those most in need.
We believe that no child should shiver through the night, no parent should fear the cold, and no family should face winter alone. Every blanket, every drop of heating oil, and every coat we provide is a reminder that they are not forgotten.
With Gratitude
None of this would be possible without the kindness of our supporters. Every donation, every shared message, and every act of generosity makes a real difference in the lives of families facing the cold.
Because of you, children sleep warmer, parents worry less, and hope shines brighter even in the harshest winters.
From all of us at Syrian Hands & JIT — and from the families you’ve helped — thank you for standing with us.
