[View it online.](   [CARE](   [Winter shows no mercy on the poor...](   Conflict has been raging for more than 12 years in Syria causing one of the largest displacement crises in the world. Families like Radwa’s – a mother of four – have had no choice but to live in a camp with thousands of others through every season. But winter is the worst of all. She believes “winter shows no mercy on the poor.” She’s right. Winter can be incredibly harsh for families who live in old, run-down tents. It is freezing cold for children who have no winter clothes, and it’s brutal for mothers who have no way to keep their children warm.   “On days when it rains or snows… (our children) go out barefoot without any shoes for the outdoors and they do not have sufficient clothing. They are constantly sick and we are worried for their health.” – Radwa   {NAME}, what we do today can save lives this winter. CARE is preparing winter kits for families in dozens of countries where we work.
