You are also in every mission!

Support and Sustain Children (SSCh) is a small volunteer organization that brings concrete aid to children and families affected by war or extreme poverty. We operate in crisis areas, offering humanitarian support and development projects in Turkey, Syria, Gaza and Madagascar.

It is the natural evolution of a humanitarian commitment born out of the will of Arianna Martini, founder and president of the association.

Every month or month and a half, Arianna Martini personally travels to the field with her team to follow each project closely, document its impact, and ensure that aid reaches those who need it most, anywhere in the world.

Thanks to the support of so many donors who have placed their trust in SSCH, the seeds of hope and redemption have been planted. The children’s smiles are the greatest and most priceless thanks Arianna Martini and her team bring home with each mission. And an incentive to do more and better, to point with courage and determination to a future for those who have stopped looking for it.

Heartfelt thanks from the entire SSCh Team.

Our projects
and our missions

Our goal is to provide Syrian children living in degraded conditions with food and water security, medical care, shelter from the cold and that little bit of education that can free them from slavery and ignorance. We have a long-distance support project for orphaned children. Helping children means helping the communities to which they belong.

“Everything we do is possible thanks to your help and your generosity, without which we couldn’t even dream of carrying out the projects intended to provide relief to the least of the least”.

From the beginning, SSCh has aimed to help Syrian children, orphans and families forced to leave their land and roots. For 10 years, SSCh has been intervening by bringing food, medical care, education and basic necessities to places where nothing exists, not even official recognition of their existence by international bodies, NGOs and government institutions.

Even a small contribution is necessary.
It allows us to buy medicines, food, blankets, to fix tents, to protect them from the cold by providing socks, shoes, jackets, and to deal with emergencies.
