ReliefAid is a kiwi charity delivering emergency aid to people affected by conflict. Working in war zones across the globe, their humanitarian action has included the delivery of life-saving shelter and education aid to over 145,000 people forced from their homes by fighting in Syria.
St Mary’s College has been working with ReliefAid since 2017, helping families and kids driven into camps by a war that has left them homeless, physically and emotionally scarred without the basics needed to survive the harsh living conditions.
RELIEF-AID RESILIENCE PROJECT 2020
We are proud to support the ReliefAid Resilience Project to help children in Syria. This project is aimed at raising funds for frisbees, skipping ropes, balls, and hula hoops. We take for granted that these activities are fun. These items can also build resilience. By trial and error, children learn to pick themselves up and by so doing build inner strength – build resilience. This strength supports education and childrens outlook on life.
When families fled their homes due to war, they were only able to take essentials. This project is raising funds for ReliefAid to provide eqiupment for children in displacement camps. Please click here to help support this amazing project.
ReliefAid relies solely on private donations. It does not receive any funding from governmental sources and is a registered charity with the NZ Charities Commission.
Your help will be greatly appreciated and will positively impact the children who will benefit.
