ABOUT
UK Care for Children was setup in 2008 and is a British registered charity (No. 1124927). The objectives of the charity are the provision of general charitable welfare services such as poverty relief, medical assistance, the promotion of education and related projects.
The charity continues to grow in 2016, with a focus on addressing the expanding needs of refugees across its areas of operation. The Syria Crisis, which began in March 2011, as only worsened and led to more and more refugees seeking safety in Lebanon and Jordan. The existing refugee camps within these areas continue to face resource shortages as well as both Palestinian and Syrian refugees being unable to meet their basic needs.
HISTORY
2008
UK Care for Children was setup in 2008 and is a British registered charity (No. 1124927).
2011
The Syrian refugee crisis, which began in 2011, is one of the most pressing disasters in the world today, with its effects reverberating around the globe.
2016
By the end of 2015, more than 6.5 million Syrians have been internally displaced and 4.4 million were registered refugees.
With the Syrian Crisis ongoing and worsening, the increasing number of people seeking refuge in Lebanon and Jordan as well as existing humanitarian needs continue to affect how the charity develops and responds. This growing humanitarian crisis has meant the charity is focusing more on social welfare for the most vulnerable, such as children and new refugees.
