PRACTICAL SUPPORT · FAMILY CHOICE
Each family knew what mattered most.
The campaign provided monetary assistance. Families used the funds for winter clothes, blankets, tarps to seal their tents and, in some cases, replacement tents. These were not identical packages: support followed each household’s circumstances.
Blankets for cold nights.
Families purchased blankets as part of their winter needs.
Keeping rain outside.
Tarps helped families seal and protect their tents.
A replacement shelter.
In some cases, families used the assistance to buy new tents.

MOMENTS FROM OUR ARCHIVE
Care you could see.
Our 2025 archive brings together the conditions families faced and the everyday support they shared in donor updates: shelter, blankets and warmer clothing. These are historical photographs from last winter.

AL ANWAR · DECEMBER 2025
The water kept coming.
December’s archive records floodwater around the tents at Al Anwar. It is part of the context behind the continuing requests for winter support.
Support continued as the storms arrived.
The archive records appeals during November’s rain, documentation of the December floods and a further urgent appeal in January 2026. The year-end update also describes GSN beginning support for the Al Anwar community. That wider relationship is part of the story, but it is not presented here as spending from the winter campaign.
- November 2025
An early donor message reported winter assistance for about eight families. The campaign continued as further needs emerged.
- Year-end 2025
The donor update reported monetary assistance to more than 50 families, alongside photographs families had shared for donor updates.
- January 2026
A renewed urgent appeal described storm damage and continuing requests for help.
The record behind this page.
This account draws on GSN’s archived campaign messages and year-end donor update. The archive does not provide a final audited campaign total or complete item counts, so we do not invent them. Early and year-end family counts are progress snapshots and must not be added together.
