Amman: The Amman-based Promise Welfare Society (PWS) launched a campaign to support people affected by Syria earthquake.

The PWS purchased 150 tents, worth JD15,000 and also prepared 3,000 parcels laden with winter clothes, foodstuffs and blankets, in cooperation with the Jordan Hashemite Charity Organisation (JHCO) for the affected people in Syria.

The PWS, at directives issued by its president, Her Highness Princess Alia, prepared multiple convoys loaded with foodstuffs and relief supplies to Syria’s affected governorates.

In a statement, PWS Director General, Azmi Shaheen, lauded efforts of all associations, institutions and individuals that supported PWS financially and morally and contributed to providing parcels to support affected people in Syria.

On Wednesday, he said PWS handed 2,000 parcels to JHCO, as other convoys are being prepared to be dispatched to Syria, including foodstuffs, clothes, and blankets.

He expressed appreciation for the role of the PWS’s students, who worked “diligently and hard” in sorting and packing parcels and relief materials.
