Mercy Corps Hopeful After Syria Cease-Fire Announcement
"At Mercy Corps, we see countless men, women, teenagers and children in Syria and neighboring countries living in limbo as they wait for peace and hope for a chance to resume work, school and normal daily life. Our team has worked tirelessly and courageously for years to provide a measure of comfort and relief to their intense suffering.
"What we have seen in Syria is shameful. Too many lives lost; too many families destroyed; too many hopes and dreams shattered. The fighting must end, and we urge all parties to the conflict to embark – once and for all – on a path to lasting peace."
Mercy Corps is a global organization powered by the belief that a better world is possible. We meet the urgent needs of today through emergency response and disaster preparedness; and we build a stronger tomorrow by connecting people to the resources they need to strengthen their community from within.
Mercy Corps has one of the largest aid operations in Syria , reaching about 470,000 people each month. Today, we have team members in eight countries helping some 2.5 million people affected by this crisis.
