The Syrian people have endured over a decade of conflict, destruction, and devastation. The ongoing war has not only displaced millions but has also left a profound humanitarian crisis in its wake. With nearly 2.5 million people living under intense conditions—facing poverty, injury, and trauma—the need for medical intervention is more urgent than ever.
In response to this crisis, the Nabulsi Family Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to humanitarian efforts, is launching a medical mission to Syria. This initiative aims to bring life-saving medical care to those who have been suffering from a lack of resources, infrastructure, and access to basic healthcare.
We invite you to stand with us in this mission of mercy, as we work to restore hope, dignity, and health to those who need it most.
The Humanitarian Crisis in Syria
The Syrian Civil War has left millions in dire circumstances, with bombings, economic collapse, and displacement becoming the tragic norm. As a result, the country’s healthcare system has crumbled, leaving countless individuals without proper treatment or medical resources. The following statistics and conditions paint a grim picture of Syria’s current reality:
• Over 2.5 million people live under critical conditions. Many face chronic illnesses, untreated injuries, and psychological trauma due to constant exposure to violence and displacement.
• 70% of hospitals and clinics are either damaged or non-functional. Medical facilities have been destroyed or rendered inoperable due to bombings.
• Limited access to clean water, medicine, and medical equipment has led to widespread disease and untreated infections.
• A surge in psychological disorders and trauma-related illnesses has emerged, especially among children and women. Many suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and severe depression.
• Thousands of injuries and amputations caused by bombings and shrapnel have gone untreated, leaving survivors with physical disabilities and long-term pain.
• Vision impairment and cataracts have affected thousands due to poor medical care and malnutrition.
• Orthopedic injuries and bone fractures caused by explosions and collapsing buildings remain untreated, leading to permanent disabilities.
The Mission: Healing the Wounds of War
The Nabulsi Family Foundation has committed to stepping in where help is most needed. This medical mission will focus on delivering targeted care to address critical health issues among affected Syrians. Our primary areas of focus include:
1. Cataract Surgeries and Vision Care
• Many Syrians have developed cataracts and vision impairments due to malnutrition, untreated eye infections, and exposure to harsh environmental conditions.
• Our team of ophthalmologists will perform free cataract surgeries and provide eyeglasses and medications to restore vision and improve the quality of life for those in need.
• By restoring vision, we empower individuals to regain independence and contribute to their families and communities.
2. Orthopedic Care and Rehabilitation
• Bombings and structural collapses have left thousands with severe orthopedic injuries, including fractures, amputations, and joint damage.
• Our orthopedic specialists will provide surgeries, prosthetics, and physical therapy to help patients regain mobility and reduce chronic pain.
• Rehabilitation programs will focus on long-term recovery, ensuring patients can lead functional lives despite their injuries.
3. Psychological Support and Trauma Counseling
• Years of war have inflicted deep emotional scars on Syrian children, women, and men. Many are suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, and depression.
• Our mental health professionals will offer trauma counseling, group therapy sessions, and emotional support services to address psychological wounds.
• Special programs will target children who have lost parents or witnessed horrific events, helping them process their experiences and rebuild hope.
4. Emergency and General Medical Care
• The mission will include mobile clinics to reach remote areas and underserved communities. These clinics will provide basic medical services, vaccinations, wound care, and medications.
• Chronic illnesses such as diabetes, hypertension, and respiratory problems will also be treated, ensuring no one is left behind.

Stories of Resilience and Hope
In the face of unimaginable hardships, the people of Syria have shown remarkable resilience. Here are just a few examples of individuals we aim to help:
• Fatima’s Story: A 9-year-old girl who lost her eyesight due to a bomb explosion. With proper cataract surgery, Fatima can regain her vision and return to school, giving her a chance for a brighter future.
• Ahmed’s Story: A father of three who lost his leg in an airstrike. With a prosthetic limb and rehabilitation, Ahmed can walk again and provide for his family.
