Over three and a half million Syrians have been driven from their homes by violence since the war in Syria started. And, as usual when there is a war, women and children make up three quarters of the refugee population. If someone was bombing my home and shooting my children in the street I’d leave too. It’s only the luck of the draw that saw me born into a stable democracy and I’m grateful for that random lottery win. So I’m going to lend a hand to the refugees in these camps, and try to raise some money to help keep them warm this Northern winter. $10 buys five blankets so click here if you can give.
