The Hands Up Foundation

The Hands Up Foundation is a young, innovative charity which was set up by four British friends. Inspired by our time in Damascus, we want to remind our friends in Syria that they have not been forgotten. We believe in giving Syrians a hand up not a hand out and in the dignity gained by empowering local Syrian communities.
