Funds food, rent support and seasonal Ramadan and Eid aid for Syrian refugee families and vulnerable Jordanian neighbors in host communities.
Why this matters in Jordan
Syrian refugees who settled in towns rather than camps pay rent, utilities and food at local prices, often on informal wages that barely cover the rent. After more than a decade in exile, many households have used up their savings and borrowed from shopkeepers and relatives, and debt is common. Work-permit rules keep many adults in low-paid sectors such as agriculture and construction.
Food assistance has been cut repeatedly as donor funding fell, with WFP reducing the number of refugees who receive monthly vouchers. Families cope by eating fewer meals, buying cheaper food and sending older children to work instead of school. Poorer Jordanian families in the same neighborhoods face many of the same pressures. Neighbors and local faith networks often notice first who is struggling, and faith-based giving, especially around Ramadan and Eid, reaches people that formal programs have dropped.

Founded 1997
Islamic Relief Worldwide operates in Jordan supporting Syrian refugees and vulnerable host-community families.
How they work: Islamic Relief works mainly in urban host communities, combining cash assistance with food parcels, health support and livelihood programs. Seasonal giving shapes much of its distribution: Ramadan food packs and Qurbani meat at Eid go to refugee and local families identified with local partner organizations, and its cash-for-rent support has been aimed at households at risk of eviction.
Track record: By January 2014 over 200,000 Syrian refugees in Jordan had benefitted from Islamic Relief's work, and its cash-for-rent scheme had protected 19,210 people from homelessness.

Giving in Jordan
Since 2011, Syrian refugees have lived in Jordanian host communities where housing costs have risen sharply, and that shared life frames all four causes. The Norwegian Refugee Council provides rent subsidies, a second fund provides food, rent support and Ramadan and Eid aid through Islamic Relief, and Caritas Jordan distributes winter blankets and heating fuel through its centers and volunteers to refugees and local households alike. A research fund at the King Hussein Foundation studies long-term refugee health to inform regional planning.
4 causes are listed in Jordan, each with its own verified organization. $283,856 has been distributed to causes in Jordan since 2021.
