Assistance to the victims of the earthquake in Syria & Turkey

Let’s help the victims of the earthquake together!

A devastating earthquake measuring 7.8 on the Richter scale has hit Turkey and Syria in the early hours of 6 February. The disaster has killed thousands of people, and has trapped further thousands under the rubble.

Apart from the many dead and injured, the earthquake has also left tens of thousands homeless. In the first few days after the disaster, rescue teams are still trying to find survivors under the debris – but in the coming weeks and months the priority will shift towards the care of survivors who have lost everything.

HIA’s relief efforts concentrate on providing food, hygiene kits, warm blankets and shelter to people in need in and around the Syrian city of Aleppo.

To support the victims – rendered homeless by the earthquake – HIA has launched a fundraising campaign.
