Tell Abyad
Rebuilding a war-damaged home to restore safety, warmth, and sakinah for a family in Syria.
A Home Left Half-Finished by War
In Tell Abyad, Syria, a mother is raising three children inside a home that the war left half-finished and barely holding together. When the wind cuts through broken windows, it brings fear, emotional distress, and a diminished feeling of safety. When the doors don’t properly close, belonging disappears. When the roof is damaged, “home” stops feeling like shelter and starts feeling like survival.
This family didn’t choose to live like this. They’re still there because there’s nowhere else to go.
Our Vision for the Future
Our goal is clear: restore one war-damaged home to a livable condition so a mother and her children can sleep safely, live with dignity, and live without daily risk. $15,000 USD funds the full renovation — completed within 1–2 months by GHR field teams, coordinated with local authorities and partners.

Renovation work includes plastering and wall repairs, interior painting, electrical wiring, doors and windows, roof iron replacement, exterior repairs, toilet renovation, and essential furnishings — a water tank, kitchen set, refrigerator, blankets, carpets, and a wardrobe.
Why It Matters
For many of us, a home is where we make sujood in peace, where children feel protected, where a mother can breathe without bracing for what might fail next. Giving to shelter is not “just construction.” It’s restoring safety, stability, and sakinah for a family that has lived too long without it.
If you can give, kindly give. If you can’t, please share. And let this be sadaqah jariyah that rebuilds more than walls — it rebuilds a family’s sense of life.
