Malnutrition started appearing in Syria since the crisis began. UOSSM started providing nutrition services in all UOSSM facilities, to screen and treat children with malnutrition. Since 2017 UOSSM provided nutrition services to over 113,000 children under the age of 5. Please support our work! 

Children seem to always pay the ultimate price. Syrian children 7 and under have known nothing but war all their lives. Many are asking what can they do to help? Support our work, UOSSM is on the ground providing medical care and relief to those who need it most.

Dr. Amani Ballour, a pediatrician from besieged #Ghouta sends out a plea to any one that will listen and still has "a shred of humanity." Dr. Ballour said, "There are over 400,000 civilians with over 100,000 children. Unfortunately, the pictures of our bloodied, wounded and killed children is not affecting people around the world. What is the world waiting for to help save the 400,000 civilians?”

Watch as one of our staff try to help a family just under attack in Ghouta.

This is another tragic story about a child in Ghouta. Awais lost both his eyes in an attack and can no longer see. His life is in danger as well. 

Qasem was with his mother when they came under an attack. His mother was killed and his face was extensively wounded. He is only one year old! Qasem is one of many children in Ghouta that need to be medically evacuated...he can no longer speak, or eat or even express his pain, except for the tears rolling down his face.

This is the story of Qasem told by his father. The one-year-old baby boy was in an attack in eastern Ghouta, when he lost a large part of his face, he also lost his mother in the attack. This story is just one of countless children suffering inside Ghouta and in besieged and hard-to-reach areas in Syria.

Rama is 4 years old and is suffering from cancer in an area where there is no access to medical care for her disease. She needs to be evacuated from Ghouta to save her life.

The video shows the sheer numbers from the crisis in Syria. The situation in Syria is dire. 

Children tell their heartbreaking story in Ghouta about how they were victims of an attack as they were on their way home from school. No child should ever have to experience what the children of Syria have experienced.
