What Happened?

On February 6th, a 7.8 earthquake and multiple aftershocks hit Southern Turkey and Northern Syria – one of the strongest in the region in over 100 years. Sadly, the death toll has exceeded 35,000 and continues to rise hour by hour. This region is home to an already vulnerable population due to years of conflict which created massive ongoing needs before the earthquake. Now collapsed buildings and damaged roads have left hundreds of thousands displaced and stranded in the freezing temperatures; children are particularly vulnerable to family separation, exploitation, and abuse at this time.⁣
⁣
World Vision is responding by providing life-saving support with access to temporary shelters, heaters, clean water, non-food items, and critically needed healthcare. They are also providing care for vulnerable children separated from their families amid the turmoil.⁣
⁣
DollarFund is proud to give our donations this month to World Vision and the work they are doing to help vulnerable children and families effected by this devastating earthquake.⁣
