Our Model of Care:

We focus on rescuing the most vulnerable refugee families by providing safe housing, food, educational support, and guidance for their path to self-sufficiency.

A brief look at Safe Haven for Refugees homes for Syrian children with cancer. the Food Security Program and Educational Center. In Türkiye, SH4R works with the Turkish charity ‘‘Anything for A Smile.’’

  • Medical Homes for Refugee Children undergoing treatment

    Every year hundreds of refugee children with medical issues, along with their caretakers benefit from our safe and welcoming homes while they receive treatment in Turkey. Children receive free medical treatment at a nearby public hospital.

  • Food Security for Vulnerable Refugee Families

    Over 170 very needy refugee families receive food packages monthly. These food boxes provide staples for a minimum of two weeks and are literally a life saver for refugee families struggling to rebuild their lives.

  • Scholarships for Vulnerable Refugee Girls

    Ninety students receive monthly financial aid.

    This keeps them in school instead of

    working in a factory or marrying early to support their family.

  • Smile Learning Center

    Together with several charities we operate a learning center for Syrian children with cancer who have missed school for years.

    They catch up on their studies in English, Arabic and art. There is also a playroom for toddlers and young children.
