Dear friends,
It's doomsday in Turkey and Syria.
Over 11,000 people are dead -- and thousands
are trapped under mountains of rubble after two thumping earthquakes.
The next 72 hours are critical for rescue
efforts -- but while a massive rescue operation is underway in Turkey… in
war-torn Syria it's a totally different situation.
After a decade of all-out war, millions are
almost completely cut off from international aid, and hospitals are
thoroughly devastated.
But one brave group of Syrian volunteers is
already responding, literally digging people out of the rubble with their
bare hands. The White Helmets are the best hope for people in parts of
Syria. They are crying out for rescue supplies, fuel, and emergency
shelter -- and our movement could provide it in hours!
Let's supercharge this life-saving mission
to save thousands of people -- and if we raise enough, we'll support other
relief efforts too! Every cent we raise will go to this emergency
response -- donate what you can now:
I'LL DONATE $2
I'LL DONATE $3
I'LL DONATE $4
I'LL DONATE $5
I'LL DONATE $8
OTHER AMOUNT
The White Helmets are known for their daring
rescue operations in the face of Assad's brutal war in Syria. When the bombs
fall, they're the people who haul babies and bodies from the rubble.
In a warzone where it seemed nothing could
get worse, now they're racing to rescue thousands of men, women, and
children who are still trapped in buildings -- in the middle of an icy
winter storm. It's a challenge like nothing they've seen before.
Everything we raise from this email will go
to funding the rescue mission, paying for:
a.. Search and rescue efforts in the coming
days to dig people out from the rubble;
b.. Medical care for survivors injured in
the quake;
c.. Food supplies for people left with
nothing by this disaster; and,
d.. Shelter for those whose homes have been
destroyed.
The Avaaz community funds everything we do
by responding to emails like this -- and this one couldn't be more urgent.
Let's help to save lives in Syria, right now -- donate what you can:
I'LL DONATE $2
I'LL DONATE $3
I'LL DONATE $4
I'LL DONATE $5
I'LL DONATE $8
OTHER AMOUNT
Avaaz has a long record of helping those
caught in the carnage of Syria. We've funded the lifesaving work of the
White Helmets before, and we know how effective it is. But this disaster is
on a totally different scale -- let's show up again and make sure people of
Northern Syria know the world has not forgotten them.
With fierce hope and endless determination,
Wissam, Antonia, Kaitlin, Adela, Mike, Bert,
and the whole team at Avaaz
PS: I know we've just sent a fundraiser for
the Amazon, and we don't usually ask for donations again so soon. But in an
emergency like this, lives are at stake and every second counts.
