Ahmad Al Amin

Ahmed was living with his wife and a small boy in the town of Palmyre where he worked as an electrician.

There had been fierce confrontations in this area which made life there extremely dangerous due to the bombings and the brutal actions of some belligerents. These circumstances caused many civilians to desert the town. Thus, after several failed attempts, Ahmad and his family managed to flee to Idlib.

Due to the support of a group of people who left Palmyre together, Ahmad and his family have been able to find temporary accommodation which is very insecure and struggles to cater for 18 people.

Due to this circumstance, Ahmad has found limited accommodation for his family one kilometre from Idlib. While his wife is pregnant he is endeavouring to find work, but living conditions remain extremely difficult. That is why he is asking for help to enable his family to survive.

Outcome

As a result of your donations totalling CHF1000 which were collected by Coup de Pouce in August, the family of Ahmad has received the equivalent of this amount which has been an enormous help to them to meet their most immediate expenses, particularly in regard to accommodation and the improvement of their living conditions.
