Stop children dying from the cold

The brutal war in Syria has devastated Iman’s life. She was forced to flee Aleppo with nothing but her four children. But just when Iman thought they were safe, they came under attack from a threat they couldn’t escape: winter.

As temperatures plummeted, their make-shift shelter could not protect them from the snow storms and freezing temperatures. Wet, cold and without warm clothing, her children were helpless against the harshness of winter.

Iman’s baby was the first to die. He froze to death while she desperately tried to warm his milk. Then just weeks later, her young daughter passed away. Already weak from hunger, she was unable to fight sickness caused by living in the cold, damp shelter.

Sadly, this nightmare is a reality for millions of Syrian families. And right now, another bitter winter looms. Iman and her two remaining sons now live in a camp for displaced families within Syria. They’ve received the supplies they need to stay safe and warm this winter, but we can't forget the countless children which still need our help today.

UNICEF is working day and night to help children survive, but we can only keep children safe with your support.

Add your name to raise awareness about this crisis and help children stay warm and safe this winter.
