AMAR IS AN AWARD-WINNING CHARITY THAT WORKS IN THE MIDDLE EAST, BUILDING AND IMPROVING THE LIVES AND LIVELIHOODS OF SOME OF THE WORLD’S POOREST AND MOST DISADVANTAGED PEOPLE.
FOR OVER 25 YEARS WE HAVE PROVIDED PROFESSIONAL HEALTH AND EDUCATION ON A SUSTAINED AND LASTING BASIS, AND TODAY WE DELIVER TENS OF THOUSANDS OF MEDICAL CONSULTATIONS EACH YEAR.
AMAR RUNS HEALTH CLINICS FOR THE 2 MILLION PEOPLE WHO ARE CURRENTLY DISPLACED IN IRAQ. WE HAVE BEEN OPERATING IN THE INTERNALLY DISPLACED PEOPLE (IDP) CAMPS SINCE JUNE 2014, WHEN THE INVASION BY ISLAMIC STATE FORCED MILLIONS FROM THEIR HOMES. WHEREVER POSSIBLE, WE EMPLOY LOCAL PEOPLE AND USE LOCAL RESOURCES TO BRING ABOUT SUSTAINABLE CHANGE.
A huge thanks to @brunelstudents @Bruneluni for generously donating the money raised from their @BrunelRAG to AMAR! It was a lovely surprise to receive the cheque this morning. Please be assured that every single penny will go straight to help our programmes in #Iraq.
Volunteers from the AMAR team in Khanke IDP camp in northern #Iraq have organised & run a clean-up of the camp. They're all residents of Khanke and really want to make life as happy as possible for their friends and neighbours. We hope they inspire you as much as they inspire us!
Thousands of children in northern #Iraq were captured by ISIS in 2014. Since the military defeat of IS, some of these children have returned. They have been left #traumatised by their experiences but face challenges in accessing treatment: amarfoundation.org/uk-featured/ch… Retweeted by AMAR International
