Charity for the needy: The Assyrian Aid Relief-Australia

The Assyrian Aid Relief – Australia, an affiliate of the Assyrian Aid Society in Northern Iraq, has for decades supported Assyrian villages through vital community projects. These include providing electricity, developing irrigation systems, and helping fund teachers in Assyrian-language schools. More recently, the organisation has turned its attention to assisting residents of the village of Surka in Dohuk, who have built a new community hall and are now seeking support to furnish it. Chair of Assyrian Aid Relief – Australia, Shushan Tower, shares more.
