About this Fundraiser

She entered the clinic, tracing the ground with her eyes.  Her father stood by, the weight of the world clearly resting on his shoulders. His eyes were red from crying as he lifted the sleeves of his daughter’s jacket, revealing her disfigured arms.

Government officials had stormed into their home to kidnap her father.  As she grabbed her daddy, screaming and begging for them to let him go, they broke her arms with the butts of their guns.  Without access to medical care, her arms healed incorrectly, leaving them disfigured and dysfunctional.  

In 2011, a series of protests known as the Arab Spring broke out across the Middle East.  While outcries in places like Egypt and Tunisia led to swift regime changes, the result in Syria can be described as nothing short of horrific.  President Bashar al Assad responded with a violent backlash against his dissidents, leading to a prolonged sectarian war.  

Over 190,000 people have died on the streets of Syria as Alawites and Sunnis take up arms against one another.  Over 3 million refugees have fled into neighboring countries while hundreds of thousands await official registration.  They lack food, money, and medical care.  Many suffer from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).  

What We’re Doing

In the refugee camps, children draw pictures of bombers destroying their houses and kids with tears streaming down their faces.  Babies cry from starvation while their parents struggle to find even a grain of rice to eat.  This expedition is your chance to serve refugees who have left their homes with nothing more than the clothes on their backs.  

e3 Partners is providing medical care and basic necessities to these refugees on expeditions across the Middle East.  But they need more than physical provisions.  They need to a Savior.  As these refugees grasp for answers, we are sharing the story of our Creator God who knows them by name and gave his own son to rescue them from this broken world.

Are you ready for the adventure to begin?
