SKT Welfare

Who we are

SKT WELFARE’S UNIQUE POSITION

• We operate a 100% donation policy.
• All of our work is carried out by experienced and committed volunteers, primarily from professional backgrounds. We do not outsource any aspect of our relief efforts whatsoever, and take complete ownership for delivering projects ourselves, end-to-end.
• Our decision to function autonomously in responding to humanitarian crises is the engine behind our ability to initiate and continue independent, swift and effective relief efforts.
• The donations we receive enable us to maintain this freedom to act without constraint or consideration to outside currents which might otherwise impact the critical work we do, based on our own assessments of where the needs are most acute and the resources at our disposal.
• This work we do is driven solely by our own assessment of the need, balanced by any associated risk.
• We are not subject to any external agency, interests or pressure. This approach is especially important when large segments of civilian populations are facing imminent threats to life and welfare.

• SKT Welfare’s extensive network of volunteers enables us to be extremely efficient in delivering aid to those who need it most inside Syria. There are many credible charities contributing to aid efforts, but very few have the logistical set-up to get aid into Syria. Those that can, are focussed on border areas or major cities such as Aleppo and Homs. Unlike SKT Welfare, few are actually getting aid to many of the devastated village areas, which are, therefore, being neglected. Our network (of 50 people inside Syria) is so effective that charities have requested us to partner with them, in delivering aid to Syrians.
• We now have offices in the USA, Jordan, Turkey, Sweden as well as the UK giving us an international footprint for both fund-raising and delivering aid.
