For his part, the association's financial manager, Wadhaad Sadiq, clarified that donations are transferred through associations officially registered in France and Turkey, and are subject to financial auditing and field monitoring to ensure they reach their rightful recipients, whether to support orphan sponsorship or purchase food supplies.
Sadiq pointed out the continued suffering of families living in camps who face difficulties in securing their basic needs, emphasizing that rebuilding Syria requires supporting these families and helping them return to their homes, as well as paying attention to the education of orphaned children and preparing them to ensure a better future.
For her part, Syrian film director and producer Wadhaad Al-Khatib emphasized the importance of charity events in conveying the Syrian cause and establishing direct contact with European societies, noting that small humanitarian initiatives can achieve tangible results, and called for enhancing individual contributions to support those in need.
The evening falls within the activities of Syrian associations in Europe to support the Syrian community.
