Huge thanks to all of you who made an online donation to Firefly via the Big Give Christmas Challenge 2019.
We smashed our target of £15,000 for the Firefly for Syrians project and have a final total of £18,810.
Your amazing generosity will enable us to offer so much more to our January 2020 intake of 2,000 refugee children in Antakya, Turkey and in the camps where we work in Northern Syria.
These children will access our unique learning programmes in safe and warm spaces through the winter months.
Many thanks again to those of you who have given, but if you haven't and you would like to support the hard work of Firefly for Syrians or our other partners in Bosnia or Gaza please click on the link below to make a donation.

Please see the links below to the film of Joanna's reading, and also a film of Jeremy Irons reading at the same event. The films include photos from our projects in Bosnia, Syria, Turkey and Gaza.
