Food Parcels for Syrian Refugees

Hunger is a problem—a sharp gnawing problem for thousands of Syrian refugees. After fleeing for their lives and leaving behind homes and careers, many now struggle to find jobs in the places where they are taking refuge. Some work in the fields harvesting fruit and vegetables for minimal pay, but the questions still loom: Will we have enough to eat? Where will I get money to buy more food?

For families living under desperate conditions in refugee camps, a food parcel is an immense gift of hope. Beans, rice, and pasta help to relieve the pangs of hunger! Children smile, and refugees experience firsthand the love of Jesus through the blessing of physical provisions.

5.5 million Syrians are refugees. Another 6.3 million are displaced inside Syria. —UN refugee agency
