CNEWA works closely with the leadership of the Assyrian, Chaldean and Syriac Catholic and Orthodox churches, including religious communities such as the Dominican Sisters of St. Catherine of Siena, in supporting their ministries to care for those most in need throughout Iraq. Among the many projects, we support:
- Health care for the most vulnerable at St. Raphael and Al Hayat hospitals in Baghdad and at clinics and mobile dispensaries in Iraqi Kurdistan
- Programs to assist in the formation of lay leaders, catechists and university students of the Chaldean and Syriac churches in Kirkuk
- Blankets, heaters and winter coats for those most in need in winter, and water and small refrigerators for families suffering in the blinding heat of summer in Iraqi Kurdistan’s displacement camps
- Nursing formula, diapers and clothing for infants and toddlers and their mothers
- Computer literacy and foreign language courses to help youths develop new skills
