DEAR SOKA GAKKAI MEMBERS, PLEASE HELP THE VULNERABLE SYRIAN REFUGEE FAMILIES!

23-year-old Syrian refugee Aisha Kallout and her 3-year-old son Yahya were injured in the Beirut Explosion. Yahya suffered facial injuries and a broken nose, and the incident left him extremely traumatized that now he suffers from anxiety and fear. There are many more Syrian refugees who are just like Aisha and Yahya, they are in urgent needs for your generous support.

DEAR SOKA GAKKAI MEMBERS
PLEASE HELP THE VULNERABLE SYRIAN REFUGEE FAMILIES!

Soka Gakkai member Dr. Lam Kin Chung has been supporting UNHCR (UN Refugee Agency) since 2017, he is recently appointed UNHCR Patron in June 2021. The current four UNHCR Patrons include Prince of Qatar and Princess of Jordan.

“It is my honour to be appointed UNHCR Patron. I am committed to practise what I learnt from Soka Gakkai and I would like to call for actions from our fellow members, to help the millions of vulnerable displaced people around the world.” Dr. Lam shared enthusiastically.

There are 6.6 million Syrian refugees in the world, scattered in at least 130 countries. Over 5.5 million of them – four out of five Syrian refugees – live in Syria’s neighbouring countries: Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq and Egypt. Furthermore, some 6.7 million Syrians remain displaced in their own country.

UNHCR has been working on the ground, providing lifesaving support both in Syria and the neighbouring countries, since the start of the conflict. Between January and October 2020 alone, UNHCR Syria provided community-based protection to 864,696 displaced persons, returnees and host community members.

And yet – 10 years on, the desperate situation of displaced Syrians is like a new emergency. UNHCR’s response continues to be severely underfunded, and the needs are growing every day.

Dr. Lam Kin Chung has generously pledged a donation of HK$1 million to match the donations from Soka Gakkai members in order to maximize the impact of your charitable giving. Please donate now to help us address the increasing humanitarian needs of Syrian refugees.

  • HK$1,560 can provide core relief items to a household in Syria
  • HK$2,340 can provide 50 Syrian refugees in Jordan with hygiene kits to fight against COVID-19
  • HK$4,095 can provide 1-month cash assistance to 3 Syrian families in Lebanon
