In the context of precautionary measures to curb the spread of COVID-19, the team of the Syrian Association for Social Development distributed 70 hygiene kits at the Lam’et Dahab center in Zahira, Damascus, within the GBV programme.

The kits included soap, medical gloves, face masks, chlorine disinfectants, and hand sanitizers. In addition, health awareness brochures were distributed in order to increase the women’s awareness on COVID-19, and teach them the correct use of the distributed supplies to maintain their health and safety.

Furthermore, one of the women said:” We are very grateful! Thank you for the hygiene kits. We were in dire need for them, as we had a lot of difficulty in getting the protective supplies and disinfectants. I appreciate your concern for women’s health!”.
