"We, as Syrians, felt frustrated and depressed after long years of being abandoned or forgotten," says Farouq Habib, a leading civilian activist and program director at Mayday Rescue. "We need the bombs to stop. We need the siege to be lifted. We need the oppressed people to get their legitimate rights."
Mayday Rescue builds and supports search and rescue teams in some of the world's most vulnerable and dangerous communities. Its mission is to save lives, strengthen communities, and in turn—build a better future for the children of Syria.
