Tens of thousands of Iraqi Christians have been displaced from their homes, fleeing the Islamic State caliphate which demands facing paying heaving fines, renouncing of faith in Christ, or execution.

These Christians, whose ancestors have inhabited Northern Iraq since the first century A.D., were forced to leave with only the clothes on their backs.  Their possessions, money, vehicles and personal identification papers were taken from them. 

Now, many are facing the onset of cold weather in Northern Iraq without shelter or warm clothing.

The Ohio Christian Alliance is joining with Chaldean American Christians to collect and send warm winter clothing to our brothers and sisters in Iraq.  Will you help?

New or gently used coats for children, women and men are needed. Please wash or dry clean the coats before donating.
