Dear R.,

The ongoing conflict in Syria has produced the worst humanitarian crisis since World War II. Back then -- over 70 years ago -- a handful of Americans banded together to ship 20,000 CARE Packages(R) of food and supplies to European refugees in a matter of months.

Since then, our CARE Packages have become an icon of American generosity, encapsulating the impulse to do something directly to bring care and compassion to an individual or family in need.

With the stroke of a pen, President Trump peremptorily slammed the door on thousands of vulnerable Syrian families desperately fleeing what the United Nations has described as a 'complete meltdown of humanity.'

Sadness. Disbelief. Indignation. This is the mix of emotions I -- and I'm sure you -- have felt since the President signed his executive order on Friday. But we aren't powerless. 

Today, at this critical moment in history -- as the lives of more than 10 million Syrians fleeing the war hang in the balance, we Americans have a moral obligation to act: Let us join together once again to send 20,000 CARE packages in the form of voucher cards for Syrian refugees in dire need. If we could do it 70 years ago, we can do it today -- in the face of our generation's greatest humanitarian crisis.

Don't wait. Let's stand with them and show them who Americans are. Innocent Syrian refugees fleeing persecution and violent conflict need your support TODAY.

Sincerely,

Michelle Nunn
President and CEO, CARE
