Hi everyone!
I am living out my dream right now caring for Syrian and Yazidi refugees in Greece who have been victims of war and terrible trauma. I am working with an organization called SAMS (Syrian American Medical Society) and we are currently providing medical care for 3 refugee camps in Greece and opening a 4th clinic in the Yazidi refugee camp in Mount Olympus. These people have been persecuted everywhere they have gone and a camp of 1300-1400 consists of half children. The other three camps are a mix of families, single men, pregnant women, and children. Some of the "men" were as young as 12 years old when they left their homes to try to find a better life for their families with the hopes to send for them later. They all got stuck in Greece when the borders closed earlier this year. Some are now 17 living alone in their own tent. They have had to grow up so fast and many of the people look 10 years older than they are. I promise your funds will go to a good cause towards medication for patients or other funds contributing to their medical care. If you are a medical professional, please also contact me about coming out to Greece to volunteer. This has been the most amazing experience of my life!
