Our ServeSyria mission in Jordan has successfully concluded.Over the course of the mission, our dedicated team of volunteer doctors and staff delivered free medical care to those in need, reaching a total of 1,101 people.This mission was especially meaningful as our Executive Director, Nida Saleem, joined the team on the ground-volunteering wherever needed and bringing comfort through art therapy sessions with the children. Along the way, she witnessed countless moving moments that reflect the resilience of those we serve.Here is one story she shared:“Today I spent the day in the triage room doing art therapy with the children. There were so many little faces - markers and smiles everywhere. Their curiosity was endless. One asked in amazement, “There are Muslims in America? Wow!” Moments like these remind me how important connection and presence can be.We often gift small things like markers or crayons, and the kids light up with gratitude. But today, two 6th grade girls touched me beyond words. They left, only to return with a gift for me - a single piece of gum. From children who have so little, that small gesture carried so much weight. I found myself fighting back tears.”With your support, we can continue bringing care, dignity, and hope to vulnerable communities.
