Campaign story
We are all shocked by the scenes of death and destruction as the result of the earthquake that hit southern Türkiye and Syria. More than 30,000 persons have been killed and literally millions have been displaced due to the damage caused by the earthquake and aftershocks.
In the past, Northern Virginia has been extremely generous in helping those in need.
Whether it was the crisis of Syrian refugees fleeing the civil war in their home country or to help the citizens of Ukraine suffering from the invasion of their country by Russia – Northern Virginia has stepped up.
The biggest need right now in the earthquake zone is shelter and food.
That is why we are pleased to work with a trusted partner, Embrace Relief, to help purchase food for those in need. We previously worked with Embrace Relief on the effort to assist the Syrian refugees. Embrace Relief has contracted with a firm in Türkiye to provide Meals Ready to Eat (MREs) for distribution to the victims of this natural disaster.
Your contribution of $45 helps purchase a 30-pound package of food that will be distributed to those in need.
We have been asked on more than one occasion about the donation of blankets, coats, etc. The feedback we have received is that shelter and food are the number one priority.
We thank you for your consideration of this request.

Group FundraisingHelp thirsty kids in Africa get access to a well! Every day, around 500 children die from water-related conditions. With one well, we could help 200–1,200 people. If you could donate we would be very greatful, and so would the kids in Africa.

Group FundraisingWe are organizing this fundraiser to help provide clean water and food assistance to communities in Tanzania through Embrace Relief. As students, we want to make a meaningful difference by supporting families who face limited access to basic necessities such as safe drinking water and food. This project is also an opportunity to bring our school community together around service, compassion, and global responsibility. Our goal is to raise enough funds to support the construction of a water well and provide food assistance, while giving students at Clear Falls High School the opportunity to be part of a lasting humanitarian impact. Every contribution, large or small, will help us move closer to providing a sustainable source of clean water and support for families in need.
