I am disgusted, disillusioned, discouraged and embarrassed by the xenophobic hysteria on display by our “leaders” regarding the Syrian refugee crisis. In an attempt to turn that anger into action rather than depression, I made a donation to ShelterBox to support their work.
According to their website, “ShelterBox has been working in Lebanon, Jordan, and Iraq Kurdistan to help the millions of Syrian's who have had to leave their country since the conflict began four years ago. Recently, ShelterBox began working in Greece to provide the basic human right of shelter to these refugees as they seek asylum and safety.”
