In Zabadani, deeply affected by years of conflict, Roads of Success distributed 100 school backpacks to children whose families can no longer afford basic supplies. What may seem small became a powerful symbol of dignity and opportunity.

Each backpack helped a child return to school with confidence, a reminder that their future still matters. In a place where children have carried heavy burdens, education remains a lifeline to stability and hope.

Thank you for helping us uplift Syria’s children, one backpack, one future at a time.

As Syria continues to face the weight of war and economic collapse, Roads of Success held multiple Christmas celebrations across the hardest-hit regions, bringing moments of joy, warmth, and hope to children and families who needed it most.

Homs: A Moment of Peace Amid Conflict
At the Barakeh Child Friendly Space, 220 children and youth, including 50 children with disabilities, enjoyed a rare day of safety and joy. Muslim and Christian children stood together singing, laughing, and celebrating. Through crafts, games, a puppet show, and a visit from Santa, each child received a gift, sweets, and warm winter items, small tokens carrying a powerful message of love and dignity.

Tartous: Sharing the Warmth of Christmas
In Tartous, where winter deepens daily hardship, your generosity provided warm clothing to 30 children through the Warm Winter Clothes for Children project. Each outfit offered not only protection from the cold, but also comfort, confidence, and the reassurance that they are seen and loved.

In Wadi al-Nasara, where economic hardship weighs heavily on everyday life, your generosity reached 150 vulnerable families with food baskets designed to meet their most urgent needs. These were households facing real, ongoing struggle, families often unable to afford even the basic staples of a home.

Each basket offered more than food. It brought relief, stability, and dignity to mothers carrying the weight of their families through uncertain times. For many, this support arrived at exactly the right moment, easing financial pressure and reminding them that they are not forgotten.

Your compassion made this possible.
Together, we continue to strengthen the most vulnerable, one family, one home, one act of kindness at a time.

At the St. Elias Church Center, 40 Sunday School children with mental and physical disabilities were welcomed with cake and fresh juice, creating a warm and joyful space where they could feel safe, included, and celebrated.

This simple act of hospitality carried deep meaning. For these precious children, many of whom face daily challenges in mobility, communication, and emotional development, being seen, welcomed, and cared for is an essential source of encouragement. The gathering strengthened their sense of belonging, nurtured fellowship, and offered moments of joy that many families rarely experience.

Your support helped create a moment of dignity, comfort, and love for children who often feel overlooked.
Together, we are building spaces where every child, regardless of ability, feels valued, accepted, and uplifted.

At the Blessed Home for the Elderly, many residents carry the weight of years shaped by hardship, loss, and quiet loneliness. Your generosity brought comfort into their lives at a time when support is scarce.

Through your help, we provided adult diapers along with other essential medical supplies that the home urgently needed. These items eased their daily struggles, supported their health, and restored dignity to their care. For these elders, this support was far more than a practical gift, it was a reminder that they are seen, valued, and not forgotten.

Your compassion brought warmth and honor to some of the most vulnerable members of the community.
Together, we continue to bring dignity, comfort, and hope to those who need it most.

In April, Jacqueline Isaac met with the head of the UK’s Preventing Sexual Violence in Conflict (PSVI) initiative, at the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office. During the meeting, ROS shared updates on survivor-centered programming and discussed preparations for a global call to break the stigma surrounding survivors by incorporating principles of freedom of religion or belief (FoRB).

Delivering Food and Encouragement to Families in El Minia, in the village of El Kamal, El Minia, many families have been enduring worsening poverty. Our team delivered food bags that brought more than just meals—they offered encouragement, relief, and a renewed sense of hope. For some families, it was their first complete meal in weeks. These gestures served as reminders that they are seen, valued, and not alone in their journey. 

This Easter campaign was not just about distributions it was a coordinated effort to bring light into dark places. Every food bag, item of clothing, and shared moment reflected a deeper commitment to dignity, compassion, and human connection.

Thank you to all our partners and supporters. Your generosity continues to transform lives in the most tangible ways.

As Lebanon continues to suffer the impacts of economic collapse, ROS supported 50 families with critical food supplies. Sixty students received hot meals and new clothes, then gathered for an uplifting Easter event that included games, a film, and an egg hunt—offering them a rare moment of joy and community. In addition, 21 women attended a supportive gathering, where they shared personal struggles, received emotional encouragement, and experienced meaningful connection.
