ACN is asking for help with the repair and reconstruction project to rehabilitate the damaged houses in Maaloula, Syria, which is about 56 km north of Damascus and contains many buildings and monuments, most of which date back to the Roman and Byzantine eras. The houses and alleys of the old town were completely destroyed due to the fires set by the militants upon their occupation of the city, and by bombing and throwing them with flaming wheels from the top of the mountain. ACN has already helped to restore 30 houses and is now requested to help rebuild 60 more.
ACN has paid the first instalment and has promised to pay $108,000 AUD towards the second instalment.
Since this is an adoption project though and contains that extra level of administration and reporting our head office specifies that any offering needs to be above $5000.
Can you help rebuild the homes of our brothers and sisters in Syria?
