Stand With Refugees

Currently, 5.5 million people have fled Syria and 6.7 million are internally displaced. And, there are 11.1 million people in Syria are in need of humanitarian assistance. The UN and its partners are on the frontlines responding to this refugee crisis. However, the need for shelter, food, health care, education, and other vital aid is enormous and are outpacing the capacity and resources to respond. That's why we need to support the UN's critical work in Syria now more than ever.

UNA Sacramento is committed to advocating on behalf of the United Nations by offering anyone the ability to send a physical “Action Advocacy Letter” to either Congressman Ami Bera or Congresswoman Doris Matsui’s offices - based on your mailing zip code. A pre-written Action Advocacy Letter is provided below with the opportunity to include your personal note as well. This service is 100% free thanks to generous donors that have allowed us to build & sustain this virtual advocacy feature. Your personal information is completely confidential and will solely be used for mailing purposes.

*If you prefer to send your own message without the pre-written letter below, please indicate so within the “Personal Note” field below.
