Two months ago, sisters Marta* and Oksana* were living peaceful lives in the same Ukrainian town where they were born, married and spent their entire lives. They spoke to the IRC about how they made sudden and difficult decision to abandon everything they’ve ever known, and to seek safety with their children.

April is National Volunteer Month and to celebrate, we are spotlighting some of our outstanding volunteers!

The IRC spoke to Syrian men and women who have found temporary safety in Idlib—but worry they will be uprooted once more—about the places they escaped, and what they hope the future holds.

The IRC delivers lifesaving aid in crisis zones worldwide. As U.S. aid is cut, your support helps us protect children and families in greatest need.

Check out our highlights and success stories from the month of August.
