美国是叙利亚危机救援中的最大捐助国,并将在未来一年中接收更多失去家园的叙利亚人。
白宫发言人厄内斯特(Josh Earnest)9月10日说:“总统已经指示扩大人数,他告诉部下,要他们作好准备,在下一财政年度[2015年10月1日开始]接收至少10000名叙利亚难民。”
自从2011年危机开始以来,美国一直是向叙利亚提供人道救援的最大单一捐助国,援助量超过41亿美元。
联合国的救援呼吁尚有60%以上未得到资金响应,因此为有需要的叙利亚人提供的食品和基本服务减少。现在迫切需要其他捐助方作出贡献,美国在继续倡议国际社会增加援助。

美国国际发展署(U.S. Agency for International Development)也在网上介绍了如何为灾区募捐和捐赠物品。
帮助难民是美国的长期传统。自1975年以来,美国安置了来自全球各地逃离暴力和迫害的将近300万难民,超过所有接收难民国家安置人数的总和。
美国各行各业的人可以通过机构团体和个人的努力,帮助难民在美国重新安家。
