Help provide relief now.

Thousands are wounded and many are trapped.

On Monday morning, February 6, Syria and Turkey were hit by a 7.8 magnitude earthquake which was quickly followed by a 7.6 earthquake hours later amid several aftershocks. The death toll of more than 42,000 people continues to rise with the collapse of more than 6,500 buildings in the southeastern region of Turkey along the border of Syria.

Help our local partners act swiftly.

Tearfund is active in Syria and our local partner is currently assessing the needs of families impacted by the earthquakes.  

New information will follow as soon as it becomes available.

In the event that we raise more than is needed to support our partners, your gift will be spent on similar emergency responses and to prevent the impact of disasters on other vulnerable communities.
