About our Country Program
Relief International is a prominent humanitarian organization operating in multiple Middle Eastern countries. Our work spans across Turkey, where we support refugees and host communities affected by recent earthquakes. In Lebanon, we address the needs of both refugees and vulnerable host populations amidst a high concentration of refugees per capita. Jordan hosts around a million Syrian refugees, and we operate in refugee camps and urban centres to provide essential services. Finally, in war-torn Yemen, we deliver urgent humanitarian aid to a population where 75% are in dire need due to a collapsed healthcare system and skyrocketing prices for basic goods. For Syria Relief International is one of the leading providers of healthcare services in northern Syria delivering healthcare to over 1 million people annually
