My name is Samantha and I have been working in and with the international humanitarian sector for more than a decade.

I am setting off to Macedonia to volunteer at a southern border refugee camp, collect information, stories and connections from refugees fleeing Syria (and beyond).
I am starting this campaign to raise money for food, clothing, goods, water and other basic necessities. I am also seeking donations of actual goods - (medicine and warm clothing). 

I am not politically or socially partial to any side of this crisis. I simply see people in need and am moved to take action, to gain a more transformative understanding of what is taking place and to give what little I can. 

I think the most valuable part of this journey, will be the experience and first hand knowledge that I gain from being close to the crisis. I want to bring back information and individual stories that will break down the distance between "us and them."

I appreciate any support, and will share with you, where your donations are going, along the way.
Please let me know if you would like to get involved further.
Love and light,
Samantha
