Abdul Wahab’s Story

Abdul Wahab had just returned home when the airstrike began. It was not the first time his community, a small town just north of Homs, had faced a brutal attack by the Syrian regime. Before Abdul Wahab could find shelter, a bomb exploded in the street, seriously injuring him and partially destroying his home—reducing treasured belongings and precious memories to ashes.

As a young man living in Syria, Abdul Wahab had endured one injustice after another—forced displacement, indiscriminate violence, and imminent arrest. To many, Abdul Wahab’s future seemed hopeless. But not to us.

Through Syrian Forum’s education and empowerment programs, Abdul Wahab began to rebuild his life. He joined Syrian Forum’s Youth Support Center in Homs, where he participated in psychosocial support sessions, completed English and computer classes, and developed new skills to restore and rebuild his community.

Today, will you help us empower thousands of others like Abdul Wahab?

Justice for Douma

On Saturday, at least 42 people were killed during the Assad regime's chemical weapons attack on Douma, a city in besieged Eastern Ghouta. The attack, an egregious war crime, injured hundreds of innocent people and forced thousands to leave their homes in search of refuge.
Today, and every day, we stand in solidarity with our Syrian brothers and sisters.
We call on the international community to ensure accountability for these crimes, and we encourage our supporters to stand with us, as we fight for justice and freedom in Syria.
As a part of the American Relief Coalition for Syria, we join other Syrian American organizations in condemning this brutal attack. You may read our joint statement here: https://www.arcsyria.org/press-release/syrian-diaspora-organizations-condemn-recent-chemical-attacks-call-accountability.
